Can confidently say that neither of those pitches were changeups. Breezy hit a curveball that didn't get in on the hands enough and Krapf hit a riseball. Minnesota has really struggled against good changeups in the last couple seasons IMO. It hasn't made much sense to me because they should be...

Did we watch the same game? That was a wildly entertaining game! It's hugely impressive that Minnesota put up 7 runs against Williams. Were there errors? Yes. But there are going to be little errors in almost every game. Pease got hit hard. It turned into a very offensive game. Northwestern and...

This was a great day for Minnesota. By far the most complete they have looked all season. Got quality innings from all 4 pitchers and they showed consistency at the plate. If they can play like this, they will definitely be a contender in the B1G.

Strelow is hitting barely over .100 now and just made 2 more errors. She's a liability on both offense and defense at this point. Find someone, anyone else to play 2B.

Got even tougher as due to weather, they are now playing SDSU, Wichita, Arizona State, and Oklahoma State this weekend. That's a very very tough slate of games.

I'm also unclear why Leschber hasn't been getting starts? She's been one of the better hitters on the team IMO

Now THIS is some offense

Good for Pease - I'm sure that felt very full-circle for her. So close to the no-hitter!

Ehh really not that dramatic. Minnesota is likely going to be a bubble team come NCAA tournament selection. Teams that have multiple bad losses do not get selected. Take 2019 Indiana for example. They had great, season-defining wins over #6 Georgia and #10 LSU, but they also had losses against...

Wow, Chavez may have just saved the season with that swing

That was my assumption as well. It looks like they have some lines spray painted as "out of play" lines because otherwise the foul territory would be astronomically large.

Great hit by Ehlke to get the Gophs on the board. Though I will say I don't know if I've ever seen as long of a swing as Ehlke's, especially with two strikes.

You put on a beautiful tournament inside Viking's stadium, and these are the announcers you come up with? They are painful to listen to...

She has six errors on the season, which is the highest on the team. She has a .926 fielding percentage. I wouldn't mind her bat being in the lineup if she had stellar defense (think Brandt), but she's making a lot of errors in the field and is hitting .086 lower than the next worst bat in the...

Minnesota is now 1-4 in 1-run games this season. They are 10-3 when scoring at least 3 runs. They are 1-6 when scoring 2 runs or less. Pitching is doing their job. Offense is not.

Strelow who is hitting below .150 makes another costly error in the field to give SDSU a run

I agree with you that Parshall should not have won B1G pitcher of the week considering her competition. But it's usually gaudy numbers like a 0.00 weekend ERA that will get you the award. IMO it was Pease giving up 5 ER vs LMU that prevented her from winning, even though I think most people...

Initial RPI for Big Ten Teams: Northwestern - 11 Maryland - 17 Michigan - 20 Minnesota - 26 Nebraska - 28 Ohio State - 38 Illinois - 51 Purdue - 74 Wisconsin - 75 Indiana - 80 Penn State - 81 Rutgers - 83 Iowa - 122 Michigan State - 154

It better be Pease. If Enter starts there is little chance of winning
