Gopher Softball 2019

Remind me to buy WCWS tickets early next year regardless of expected team strength. Tickets on StubHub going for $1,000-$3,600 and even parking passes going for several hundred $$. Wow.

Where? There's $30 OF for Monday champ game 1

I see that now on the WCWS provider's website. The tickets I saw on Stubhub were lower bowl for the whole event. I heard via a couple podcasts that tickets have been sold out for months. Maybe that was bad info.

Ok, the Cats did their part... now go out and smoke the Bruins!

 

[1UofACat]

long game, pitcher's duel, but all runs were driven in by HRs.

Anybody getting a spelling bee contest on STREAM? &^%$#

 

[rowdaboat]

Yikes. Maybe second or third time through well have timing down

Shame that bovada doesn't have a nationality of the winner. Indian all the way

 

[#2Gopher]

Finally able to get the game. Miss the first inning. Good grief. UCLA so far showing why they are ranked where they are. Hopefully at this point we can hold them (0-2 now) and get some runs. Fiser appears to have rebounded with her pitching.

 

[rowdaboat]

At least we're swinging

Now we connect...only down 3-0. But a big 3 with these gals. We can do it. Need to hit the darn ball though.

 

[rowdaboat]

Carlie best contact of the game. Wish she could get her average up she's consistently been solid AB last month

 

[#2Gopher]

Just down 2-3 and a tough third out at 2nd in the top of the 6th. One more shot. Can be done. Bats coming around.

 

[Sparlimb]

that'll do it. We could get 1, but I doubt 2 in the 7th...

 

[rowdaboat]

Can't make errors have a shot. Don't mind the aggressiveness from Allie

 

[Sparlimb]

ouch

Yikes. Ballgame.

Probably right.

Partain is just about the last one I would've expected that from. Completely changed the game. Feel bad for Amber and her.

[1UofACat]

gotta feel for Amber, she did a very good job, and certainly good enough to win... should have only been down 1 going into the 7th...

 

[rowdaboat]

Demoralizing going into Washington that we had to pull amber. Just want a shot at Florida on Saturday

 

[rowdaboat]

Again Carlie solid contact to end it

Bottom line is that they gave themselves a chance and then kicked it away. Can't do that at this level. Battled hard, but can't make those mistakes and expect to beat elite teams. Just doesn't happen.

Move on and focus on UW tomorrow...

For the most part they didn't get blown out. Yes 2-7. With a little luck was only going to be 2-3 or 2-4 going into the 7th. Washington is a good team as well. Shoots, they all are for that matter. Going to be tough but we can do it.

They can compete with these teams, no question. But have to stay aggressive and focused throughout. Did that up until the sixth. Not good enough here. Need a full, focused approach all seven innings every time out.

We beat Georgia in game 2 because they gave us 5 outs in inning 1 before DenHartog's HR. Today we returned the favor to UCLA in inning 6; Arneson could've contented herself with a long single and Partain could've fielded that ball. The Gophers seemed 'out of it' for about the first 4 innings.

Maybe some "wide eyes" on the big stage. I mean this is the real deal and the first time here for everyone including the coaches. You know you are in the WCWS when you play Washington in the "losers" bracket. UCLA is the real deal and ranked #2 for a reason. We need to play our A game for seven innings in all facets of the game at this point in the season. Saturday is a new day.

Bates gets to balls that are basehits against other players. She could get an error on a play where other players don't even get to it. She is a defensive freak. Harper should be an All-American DP because of her bat. Harper is one of the best players in the country. Best SS in the country is Bates. Harper is clearly a better hitter.
