Very, very weak slide into 3rd. That was a huge out for OSU.

OSU wins, 9-8. The Ags just dug too big of a hole in the first couple of innings and couldn't complete the comeback.

Really a rough game by us.

We started our number 4 pitcher and she got hammered (no she is not our closer, Ford would go likely go to Lessentine, Peters, or Munnerlyn in a tight and late situation if they are available).

Made the 3rd out of the 6th inning at 3rd base in a one run game, and with your clean up hitter stepping into the batter's box. That is a just can't happen kind of thing.

Against the two teams that we have played so far this year that have a pulse, we have looked like we are just happy to be there. Against those teams, they have taken it to us early.

Not a good start in Clearwater. No idea why we started Pannell. I think we gave them 6 or 7 free bases in the first 2 innings. Then Peters leaving 2 meatball pitches up in the zone. Then KP lazily going into 3rd for the last out in the 6th. Top it off with Wark not swinging the bat in the 7th.

Hopefully we wake up soon.

Starting Pannell is one thing…not realizing she's not focused is another. That's on the coach.

Frustrating game for me to watch. I am sure Coach Ford had her reasons for starting Taylor P. but that was a brutal half inning. I love the fight the ladies had to come back and get within 1 run. Cannot give up back to back homeruns on meaty pitches. Probably should have brought Kate in to start that inning. Hindsight.

This is just weird. KP wasn't even going hard rounding 2nd and then slowed down even more.

I just said this same thing to my husband. Looked like she was jogging, what was that about?

The 3rd base coach should have been more demonstrative, yelling to speed up and get down an aggressive slide. Looked like he was standing and watching. Just a weird play that unfortunately came at a critical point in the game.

The 3rd base coach just aggressively told a girl to go from 2nd to home on a blooper to cut the lead to one. He wasn't standing and watching. If Powell is going to take 3rd base there, she has to play like it matters. She apparently assumed the throw was going to go to the plate and it cost our team. There is not a situation possible there where she is supposed to be going 60%.

A developing theme is the lack of power from our outfield. AK hit 8 HR at Florida as a freshman. So, we are expecting double digits from her. Allen hit one at Georgia and has the lead off one on opening day. We need a threat from our OF to hit the ball out.

Aggressive for a runner at 2nd to go home with a 2-out hit?? The runner is moving on any contact, blooper or not.

I agree that there is no excuse whatsoever for KP to not be going 100%. But, unless you're at the game, where can you see that the coach wasn't standing and watching? I'm only going by what I see in the video.

Your first paragraph is all true. It still doesn't mean he is going to run our girl from 2nd into an out at the plate if that is what he sees.

The rest of your comments assume our coach is a bum and shouldn't be out there as some excuse for the runner not going hard.
