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.

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.
still 1-0 Us.
with a bases-loaded single. Game teid 1-1.
Sara is doing well.
Is it really that big a deal?
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.
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.
it is still 1-1.
Sara's Mom is very protective of her. In my best PC voice: I will admit that Sara is a lovely young lady.
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.
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.
ts 3-1 for the Lovely Ladies in Blue.
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.

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.
