Bottom of 3rd: Ground out to 2B, 1 down. Ground out to SS, (who was playing on the 2nd base side of the bag), 2 down. Ground ball past 1B, 1 on. Double down the LF line, runners on 2nd and 3rd, 2 down. Outfield is a bit wet from all the rain. Fly out to the track in CF, 3 down. Riley gets out of the jam. No score after 3 complete. We've got to get something going with the bats.

Bottom of 4th: Ground out to 3B, 1 down. Fly out to the wall in LF, 2 down. Single up the middle, 1 on. Ground ball off the glove of Riley, ball in no man's land, safe at first. Runners on 1st and 2nd, 2 down. Fly out to CF, inning over. VT has left 6 on in the last three innings. That's a good thing. No score after 4 complete.

Top of 5th: BAMA needs to get the bats going. Hawkins singles thru the left side. Ellestad lays down a perfect bunt, safe at first. Runners on 1st and 2nd, no outs for BAMA. Hubbard lines out softly to CF who was playing in, 1 down. Duchsherer walks, bases loaded for BAMA, 1 down. Pate runs for Duchsherer. Preuitt flies out to short LF, 2 down. Vandagriff walks on 4 pitches, run scores. 1-0 BAMA. Johnson sends short fly ball to LF, left-fielder slips on the wet grass and ball drops in. Should have been an out but 2 more runs score. 3-0 BAMA. Heivilin flies out to RF, inning over. BAMA scores 3 to take a 3-0 lead.

Top of 6th: Giles fouls out to 1B, 1 down. Hawkins grounds out to 3B, 2 down. Ellestad flies out to LF, inning over. VT pitcher only threw 6 pitches this inning. Still 3-0 BAMA.

Bottom of 6th: Ground ball up the middle, Heivilin snags it but no throw. 1 on, no outs. Pop out to SS, 1 down. Line out to Duchsherer at 1st, tags the runner out, 3 down. After 6 complete, it's still 3-0 BAMA. I would not complain about a couple of insurance runs in the top of the 7th.

Top of 7th: Hubbard doubles down the LF line. Duchsherer K's, 1 down. Preuitt K's on a ball outside and in the dirt, 2 down. Vandagriff walks on 4 pitches, 2 on for BAMA, 2 down. Johnson flies out to RF. It's a bit sad to get a lead off double and not be able to move the runner at all. 3-0 BAMA going to the bottom of the 7th. Let's finish this one.

Bottom of 7th: Ground out to 1st, 1 down. Sharp line drive off of Riley's leg, safe at first. 2-run HR to left field on an 0-2 count. Now 3-2 BAMA. National home run leader coming to the plate. Briski coming in to pitch for Riley. And she K's the home run leader! 2 down. Pop up to the catcher, 3 down. BAMA wins 3-2, and is headed to Norman, Oklahoma. Who knows what might happen from here. BAMA wins the Tuscaloosa Regional.
