2019 = 1 loss with a 18-1 record - Loss to Wisconsin in the Regional Finals 1-2.
2018 = 0 losses with a 31-0 record.
2017 = 2 losses with a 24-2 record. Loss to Baylor 3-4, Loss to ND State in the first game of the Regionals.

Just wanted to add another MHF tidbit and that is that Saturday's final game had attendance of 2127; along with the 1900 plis on Friday , those are the biggest crowds ever at MNF .

Are those numbers "paid attendence"? Home Run Village is basically "free", and it looked like there was another 1000 out there Saturday.

Were the left field bleachers part of Home Run Village, or part of paid attendance? How about the other outfield bleachers?

I really can't answer that but you can go here to read about Home Run Village. But yes I believe they are. Here is a map/pdf of Marita Hynes Field Seating Chart.....Marita Hynes Field Map

Capacity is around 1300 so I think it oncudes Home Run Village . It might matter as far sa how NCAA counts attendance but I don't think it matters to OU, Also I hace heard there are several softball venues which have free admission at school sites .

Capacity at MHF with the bleachers at 1B, 3B and the four in the outfield is about 1850 to 1900. All of these are onside the outer fence for MHF. Everything was full with some standing room only seats sold for Saturday.

The HR Village crowd was another 750 - 1000 people watching on TV.
