The way Nija got hit around last night, I thought the team would come out with low energy and defeated attitude. So glad to be wrong. The Stanford ladies fought and fought hard. I hope the team can come out even better tomorrow. I hope Nija has more in the tank.
Wow, just Wow...what a performance!
Great comment Bampa. Very well put.
I had the game on in the background (no sound because of holiday weekend plans), but I am now watching back the highlights, and one thing I am struck by is how much success NiJaree and Coach Nyberg had jamming the hitters inside. Normally, that can be a risky strategy to go in, particularly if the pitch is left up (because many hitters can take that pitch for extra bases/home run). But I have counted at least three times where jamming the LSU hitter in induced an out.
Excellent game plan from Coach Nyberg, and just really well executed by NiJaree. So proud of the fight this team showed today.

Canady looks good so far. They said thata this is the first time she has pitched in 3 consecutive games.
That LSU pitcher is tough too.
Season on the line. GO CARD!
That was inches from being a HR by Koch.

Stanford and LSU scoreless through 3 1/2. Caelan has had some good at-bats,
even when she has recorded outs. Had a lineout yesterday that just fairly close to the CF.

On the broadcast I can hear some guy constantly jawing. Is he heckling LSU or Stanford?

Koch should not have tried to score on that play. She wasn't even close. Bummer. That play could lead to the end of our season. Hope not, but . . .

I think more just pumping up LSU. He is an LSU super fan known for carrying a championship belt. A bit controversial in softball circles.
That must be irritating for the other spectators.
Oh no. Wheels are coming off the bus. LSU has the bases loaded with one out.
But . . . we get a double play!!

Boy, we need to score. I'm not sure if Canady can keep LSU off the board at this point. We need some magic bats.
Stanford scores!!!
And . . . we've got runners on first and second with no outs. Bottom of the 5th.
What a poor slide that was. If she stays low she is safe.

I've never seen such aggressive (and questionable) base running in one game. Is this common for softball?

LSU is a really good defensive team; against many/most teams, the throw is slightly off, or the tag is slightly late, and those runs scored. I understand the sentiment, particularly since Stanford may have been the beneficiary of a questionable call on that ball not hitting Chan. I also think knowing NiJaree is in the circle, the sentiment is just get her something (in terms of run support).
Jade Berry!!!

And on the first pitch with the LSU relief pitcher . . . Berry hits a 3 run homer!!! 7-0 Stanford.
Mahler with a base hit.
"An atomic explosion at the plate for Stanford" says the announcer. I think 6 of the 7 runs came with 2 outs. Amazing.
