Big early season win!
February 8th, 2020 at 5:46 PM ^
Florida didn't have their players jumping into pitches (strikes) this time I take it. Was a good strategy for them.
February 8th, 2020 at 5:48 PM ^
You go ladies! I be likin' that.
February 8th, 2020 at 5:49 PM ^
Thanks for the heads up on the game vs USF. I just clicked the link, it didn't send me to CBS but instead to a USF softball broadcast. Game is about to begin.
February 8th, 2020 at 5:50 PM ^
Impressive win, Storako is really developing into a good pitcher.
February 8th, 2020 at 5:57 PM ^
Interesting they went to Sterako instead of Beaubien.
Beaubien has had trouble getting swing & misses without the curveball maybe?
February 8th, 2020 at 6:12 PM ^
Beaubien was the lead pitcher yesterday, and will be the starter vs. USF, so they were trying to save her arm.
February 8th, 2020 at 6:11 PM ^
Was this the season opener?
February 8th, 2020 at 6:13 PM ^
No, this is their third game, they're 3-0 going into the second game of the double-header
February 8th, 2020 at 6:13 PM ^
Michigan’s got a hall of fame coach, a northern school winning big time in softball and now baseball again that’s fabulous.
February 8th, 2020 at 6:51 PM ^
Umps seems to have a wide zone.
1-1 in the 5th vs USF
February 8th, 2020 at 7:32 PM ^
Yeah, Michigan's had some chances but haven't been able to capitalize. And to her credit, USF's pitcher's been stingy.
February 8th, 2020 at 7:48 PM ^
Defense on both sides has been really good. Both pitchers have been throwing well.
February 8th, 2020 at 7:56 PM ^
2-1 win in 8 innings.
February 8th, 2020 at 7:56 PM ^
And Michigan sweeps the double header, 2-1, in 8 innings!
Lots of defense, USF pitcher threw a great game, as did Beaubien.
February 8th, 2020 at 7:58 PM ^
And they just defeated USF 2-1 in, I believe, 9 innings.
February 8th, 2020 at 7:58 PM ^
Whew! That USF game was tense AF! Clutch, gritty win to preserve the good feeling from the big Florida win!
Go Blue!
February 8th, 2020 at 9:23 PM ^
Hail to the Victors!!
February 9th, 2020 at 1:19 PM ^
We beat Fresno State in 9 innings for a sweep of the tournament but I haven't seen any details. Go blue!!
