My belief is that Deal starts today. With Coleman back, we probably go back to our regular lineup, assuming Sanders is back as well. Surprisingly, Jayda did not start at leadoff today, Ella Parker was tabbed to lead off the batting order, followed by Tiara, then Jayda. Patty is obviously still tink...

Situation: Game 3, bottom of the 1st, OU leads 2-0, runners on 1st & 3rd, one out, Hansen at the plate. I don't normally second-guess our coaches' play-calling, but in this case I'll make an exception. With a player as seasoned and salty with a bat as K9, why would our coach calling plays tell K...

It's a bitter pill to swallow, losing to Texass 1-2 in two straight games. Despite not getting the timely hits that we are accustomed to seeing from our players, we STILL outhit the Horns in tonight's game 6-3, and only gave up 1 base on balls. We outhit the Horns 19-12 in the series: 7-3 Game 1; 6-...

:ou: I said that in jest. I just get frustrated when May starts to get hit and Patty doesn't pull her until we're behind or got 2 or 3 runners on base Nicole May was rolling along until the middle of the 4th inning with a shutout. All of a sudden, with two out, the Texas batters decided, "hey,...

The obstruction non-call aside, it was a GREAT relay throw, give the Horns credit.

I think that the Horns got some home cookin' on that throw to the plate. Looked like OBSTRUCTION to me!!!

Whew! We escaped the inning thanks to a replay of Hansen leaving early yesterday. Horns were guilty this time! Still 2-1, but we need a run!

Texas loads the bases, nobody out. It's looking like it Texas' day. Hate to say it, but Patty outcoached herself when she relieved Deal.

Dang! Had a RISP on 2nd with Tiare at bat and couldn't get the tying run. Guiterrez is benefiting from unusually good defense from her teammates.

Texas with a leadoff single in the bottom of the 5th. It may be time to pull Nicole... And Nicole delivers back to back strikeouts, the Horn runner still on first. And Patty makes the pitching change. Deal enters in relief of May, and immediately gets the 3rd out! ...But Sooners gotta get their hitt...

Texas is smelling an upset, because that's what it'll be if they manage to snap our winning streak over them. But we still have two more innings to go. Never say die...

And right after I typed that, UT delivers back to back 2 out doubles to take a 2-1 lead.

Texas' oft-maligned defense showed up well in the top of the 4th inning tonight, with back-to-back excellent plays that robbed OU of base hits in the outfield. OU has now gone 1-2-3 in the 2nd, 3rd & 4th innings.
Guiterrez is pitching well... lookin' like it's gonna be a nail-biter.

After one inning, OU leads 1-0... I also noticed the whistle watching last night's game, but have NOT noticed it tonight. Maybe the whistler is not in attendance in tonight's game?

Well, Maxwell's no-hitter is now gone after a 2 out bloop single to short left field, but she retired the next batter to retire the side. OU 5-0 after 5 complete innings.
