Top of the 1st: Briski in the circle for BAMA. Starts off with a 3 pitch K, 1 down. Pop up to deep short - actually shallow left. 2 down. LF and SS need to communicate better. Ran into each other but held on to the ball. Briski gets another K on a change up, BAMA coming to bat in the bottom of the 1st.

Bottom of 2nd: Taylor K's to lead off. 1 down. Hawkins grounds out to 2b, down. Good play by the second baseman. White grounds out to 2b, inning over. BAMA leads 1-0 after 2 complete. We need more runs against UCLA.
 
Top of 3rd: Briski in the circle. Fly ball to LF, 1 down. Base hit down the RF line, runner has a bad leg, and only makes it to 1st. 1 on for UCLA. Pinch runner coming in. Pop up behind the plate. Giles makes the catch, but Wells get a little too close and gets a bloody lip. Wells being attended to. 2 down. Top of the order now for UCLA. Briski gives up a 2 run shot to CF, UCLA now leads 2-1. Rise ball didn't rise enough. Their big HR hitter is coming to the plate. That was UCLA's 201 HR this year. And another HR to RF. UCLA is now up 3-1, 2 down. We have got to score runs in this game because that's how UCLA wins. Their pitching doesn't get you, they outscore you. Base hit to CF, 1 on, 2 down. We suddenly can't get anyone out. Almost another HR, but it was way foul. Briski gets a K, but 3 runs score on 2 homeruns. BAMA now down 3-1 after two and a half.
 
Bottom of 3rd: Young hits line drive off the pitcher, safe at 1st. 1 on for BAMA. Wells strikes out swinging. I wish we could get her bat doing like it was earlier this year. 1 down. Pupillo grounds out to 2b, out at first, Young advances to 2nd, 2 down. Roman at the plate. WP, Young takes 3rd. Roman strikes out on a ball up and away.

Bottom of 4th: Giles leads off with a pop up to CF, 1 down. Vandagriff bunts, safe at 1st, 1 on for BAMA, 1 down. Taylor pops out to SS, 2 down. I wish we could get her bat going again. Hawkins HBP, BAMA has 1st and 2nd, 2 down. White hits routine ground ball to SS, inning over. We can't get a timely hit to save our life right now. BAMA trails 3-1 after 4 complete. I also don't like the fact that BAMA is 4-11 in WCWS opening games. We need to get going.

Just a note. Briski gave up the back to back dingers that gave UCLA 3 runs. But in the long run, she held the #1 offense in the country to 3 runs. UCLA was averaging almost 11 runs a game this year. As one announcer said, UCLA doesn't have much pitching so they have to outscore you. Great job in the circle today by Briski!!!
