| BSB/SB 🥎SEC Softball Tournament: #20 Alabama vs. #12 LSU - Wednesday 10 am (SEC Network)

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

Bama is the early 8/9 game on Wednesday morning (in auburn)... maybe they can catch LSU sleeping. LSU, like Bama, has had a bit of a disappointing season themselves... but, also like the Tide, their RPI is sporty at #3. They lost their last 4 SEC series coming into this week (they did take 2 of 3 from Liberty over the weekend). We all know of Bama's struggles, no sense in rehashing them. I just hope now that the page has tuned to postseason play, they can maybe find themselves a bit. If Bama can get by LSU tomorrow, their prize is getting to play Tennessee on Thursday... but that would be a good problem to deal with considering the way this season has played out so far...

LSU has had some strange losses this year. Very inconsistent. Hopefully we can catch them on an off day.

I’d love to knock UT out.

 

[Tidexc1]

Great start for Bama. Up 2-0 after 2. Heivilin with a 2 run double in the first. Beaver has been dealing through the first 2 innings.

 

[Tidexc1]

After 3 it is still 2-0 Bama. Beaver with 5 Ks so far.

 

[Tidexc1]

Top of the 4th we get runners at 1st and 3rd with no outs and can't manage to get a run across. Hope that doesn't come back to bite us. Terrible situational hitting.

 

[Tidexc1]

LSU got 2 base runners in the bottom of the 4th with a HBP and a walk. Beaver strands both. Bama still up 2-0 after 4.

 

[Tidexc1]

Still 2-0 after 5. Cahalan was robbed of a HR in the top half of the 5th. Beaver with a 1-2-3 bottom half. She's only thrown 67 pitches!

 

[Tidexc1]

Beaver with a rough bottom of the 6th. Score tied 2-2 after 2 BBs and 2 HBPs (and 1 hit). She threw 42 pitches in that 1 inning.

 

[Tidexc1]

An ugly, quick top of the 7th for Bama. Still tied 2-2.

 

[bamanc50]

Unbelievable. Walks in 2 runs. KB really struggling. Most of her pitches too low or in the dirt. The so called pitching coach comes out and talks with her while Murphy sits on his ass. At least look like you care what’s going on.

 

[Tidexc1]

LSU with a leadoff walk. Bama switching pitchers to the freshman Briski.

 

[bamanc50]

Little late there Murph. Should have made this call after KB pitched about 20 pitches in the bottom of the 6th.

 

[Tidexc1]

Briski does the job. 2 quick outs then she strikes out Pleasants with runners at 1st and 3rd. Going to extras

 

[Tidexc1]

Bama got 2 on with a single and a BB but can't get a runner past 2nd.

 

[Tidexc1]

Briski pitches a 1-2-3 bottom of the 8th.

 

[Tidexc1]

Bama gets a runner on with a BB but strands her. Going to the bottom of the 9th tied 2-2.

I really just want to see a smoked foul ball find a hole in the netting and hit that LSU superfan peacock right in his dome.

That's Deangelo Sanchez. He is actually a really good dude but he gets annoying behind the plate for sure. He loves LSU softball but he also is a big supporter of softball in general. I've met him at travel tournaments a few times.

I've heard he's a nice guy, but he's so damn irritating. Has been for years. Like Marlins Man on PCP. If he'd just sit still, he'd be easier to take. I do find most superman(s) of any team to be pretty annoying and obnoxious though.
