Softball vs uta

This was a hell of an entertaining game despite the loss,  7 home runs total, five by NT on a frigid (32 degrees when I got back to my truck) night the north wind was screaming out to center field.  

Problem is we kept hitting solos.

Twice Makawe was standing on deck while we had runners on base only for the inning to end, ...then she stepped in the box the next inning and hit bombs.  No doubt it would have been different if the nation’s hit leader had been in the lineup.

Still it was also a night everything just went uta’s way along with untimely errors.  Especially in the first two innings that saw them go up 4-0.    I counted at least 3 hits that cueballed off the bat and didn’t get 15 feet from the plate.  Just those squirrelly spinning balls right on the line that died and no one could do anything with them.  We also had a Pop fly that hit dirt we lost in the wind and a bunt and throwing error to first.  I can’t help but feel the cold played a part but that’s baseball.

UTA is good, and deep at pitcher.  The pitcher that got the win tonight is maybe their 4th pitcher and one of two freshmen they have from California.  And that’s another thing to take from this game is their stud didn’t get the win and ours didn’t get the loss.

BTW, just in case you think UTA isn’t serious about softball.

Pretty damn nice for a little sister school.
