SB Open Thread : We win 3-1
The SB Team will try to rebound from last night's disappointing loss to Minny. We should bounce back. Minny Pitcher Sara Moulton only pitched 4 innings yesterday so I would imagine that she will be the ball tonight.
This is a very important game for us. We need to pick up the pieces and have a convincing win.
For all the Directv Viewers, it is channel 610 @ 7pm.

Need a win!
Sara's screw looks great.
Freshman Sara Groenewegen has thrown a few pitches that were boarderline illegal.
Its 1-0 for the good guys. Romo hit a double driving in Colie, who hit a triple.
Great start.
Are you there?
still 1-0 Us.
Looking good so far. Still want us to be more aggressive at the plate
Bring the bat tonight Romo- make up for these errors
These umps are for shit, these sensationalist commentators are for shit and the BTN is for shit for having game 3 on tape delay.
Why can't we have our own network like Texas?
with a bases-loaded single. Game teid 1-1.
Sara is doing well.
They don't even have the respect to be there. This is a simulcast.
Is it really that big a deal?
Yes!
the winter we had, I dont blame anyone who does not come to AA in April. April in the D is a Winter Sport this year. It was 21 degrees at my house this morning.
for the extended cold weather across the country.
get me started with Algore and his BS. The guy has no clue, come to Michigan Al, and you will see global warming in action: record snowfall and record cold this year.
The ladies are hitting it hard, just hanging it up a little too long or hitting it right to the OF. We need these to start dropping.
it is still 1-1.
Our pitcher is hotter than their pitcher.
Very true
Sara's Mom is very protective of her. In my best PC voice: I will admit that Sara is a lovely young lady.
Sure, I'm not trying to sound creepy. But she's better looking than her Minnesota counterpart.
from Lyndsay to gun the Minny runner at the plate for the 3rd out. Honestly, I think the runner got her hand in before the tag.
Haylie came in to pitch to the last batter.
she was safe too. I'll take it though. Heck of a throw.
Huge hit! I knew they'd get one to drop. Great work scoring from first on that one, she was movin'.
with a slap double almost to the wall scoring 2. Clutch hitting.
New pitcher for Minny. So. Nikki Anderson from Brinard High School, Minnesota. She has 30 IP. She has 10BB and 38Ks with a 0.93 ERA. She is a very good #3 pitcher for Minny.
its 3-1 for the Leaders and Best.
Haylie remains in the circle.
Great pitching that inning too. Let's add a few insurance runs to make the 7th nice and easy.
This ump's zone is questionable at best
ts 3-1 for the Lovely Ladies in Blue.
two outs!
Michigan wins 3-1. Big Win!
Wagner closed it out in impression fashion.
DB spotting in the dugout- just ready to ruin the moment. Good win girls!
Sara finished with 4.1 IP. She gave up 1 unearned run off 3 hits. She had 3 BB and 7Ks.
Romo went 2 for 3 with an RBI, Lyndsay went 1 for 3 (D) with 2 RBIs, Colie went 1 for 3 (T) with a run scored.
A classic Michigan Win tonight on national TV. This is just what we needed. Lets come back tomorrow and take 2 of 3. Hopefully the loss yesterday does not drop us too far.
so we are up to date with our Wolverine softball champs!

Go Blue!
I know I'm way late to the party, but a huge win for the Maize & Blue tonight! I loved that Minny pitched to Romo with two (two!) bases open in the first. Who pitches to a +.500 hitter with 2 bases open? Well, she taught them what's what, and they paid the price. Now let's take the series and get a stranglehold on the conf race!
Sierra Romero is not fair.
