Our pitchers had a bad day today, especially in the second game. We made some mistakes and they hit them hard.
beat girl great last oklahoma pitching saw second state umpires
We saw two great pitching performances today. We beat the second girl (Pittman) once last year, but this was our first look at the first one. One of the umpires told me she pitched for Oklahoma State last year, but didn't make her grades.
anyone effort figure forth great hold intensity second
We put forth a great effort in the first game, but we did not hold that intensity in the second game. I don't know why that happens. If anyone can figure that out, let me know.
atlanta contact gives help hitters kim left outfield plenty shot solid starting steals win
When she steals on the Atlanta catcher, I like her speed. We're got plenty of hitters from the left side, but Kim gives us a solid contact hitter as a right-handed batter. We'll give her a shot at the outfield in the fall, but she's going to help us even if she doesn't win a starting job.
against ball gave great pitching support
We got two great pitching performances today. They're usually going to put the ball in play against Mindy. We gave her great support in the field.
bat decisions hard intensity kept morris swing today worked
We did not swing the bat well. We've got to make better decisions at the plate. We've got to find a way to keep our intensity up. Today Lon Morris worked hard and kept its intensity up.
adapt arm help kim move outfield overloaded played range strong summer
We're probably going to move Kim to the outfield. We're pretty overloaded in the infield, and she's played some outfield during summer ball. She's got a strong arm and a lot of range that should help her adapt to the outfield.

Claire has had real good control lately; she's only given up only one walk in her last several games.

Their pitcher threw that change-up a lot, and the girls said they couldn't pick it up.
