Announcer just said fsu hasn't given up 15 since 1995.

That was months before I was born.

10.1.1 The pitcher is considered to be in the pitching position when with her
hands apart, she steps forward, puts both feet on the pitcher’s plate, and the
catcher is in position to receive the pitch.


10.1.2 The pitcher may not take the pitching position on the pitcher’s plate
without being in possession of the ball, and she may not simulate the pitching
position with or without the ball when on the pitcher’s plate.

The pitcher did not have contact with the rubber.  I had to re-wind the DVR to re assure myself.

Not getting technical and I probably sound bad, but IIRC, it's when the plant foot of the pitcher leaves the mound. 

I remember this happened to Haylie recently.

"in your face" sport like the men's sports.  Once you have the mercy rule in effect, the winning coach is expected not to steal or send a runner home on a passed ball or ball in the outfield.

Now of course if the batters keep hitting there is not much Coach Hutch can do.  But on that hit to the outfield, she held the runner at third when the runner could have easily scored.

Gotta love Coach Hutch

It would seem that we would have confidence going into the game tormorrow ad FSU has to has to hsve some doubts about the buzzsaw they just ran into.

And we haven't hit the long bsll tonight.
