digs in cat sandercock stares in we are underway in game two of the championship series and at 6:38 p.m. central Time sandercock throws strike one on what looked to be a bit of an off speed and it was right down the middle we get our weather report here in just a bit it's a very good one so far no balls in a strike to to Coleman Line Drive left field but right at the left fielder Mudge who makes the catch and there's one away she hit it hard she hit it hard and those were two pitches from cat sandercock that did not have much movement on them so I don't know if it's nerves adrenaline I'm sure there's a lot of things going on in the circle for sander cooch but I mean she's been in this position before but those two pitches if that is shedding light on what's to come she better start moving the ball here's TI Jennings first pitch to The right-handed hitting sooner second baseman is a little bit low and in ball one everything that Jennings has done so far in this postseason has been absolutely fantastic for the Sooners and she continues a historic run in her career in the Women's College World Series here's the one ball no strike pitch popped up on the infield easy play for the Florida state second baseman flare and there's two away soon's off to a slow start again tonight last night three up and three down on Monday three up and three down in the first inning last time they had a first inning base runner was against Tennessee hey it's all turned out well it's all worked out to this point but I will say that's a pretty good pick from sander coock rise ball up and in out of the zone so an adjustment from Coleman to Jennings as far as movement Haley Lee's had a tough World Series and takes ball one a little bit up but on the season she's been fantastic 371 average through 61 games for the Sooners 14 home runs one of five Sooners with double digigit home runs 51 runs batted in which is good for fourth on the team here's the 1 that's a little bit out 2 and 0 so that means we've given you all the good we can point out that the World Series run been a little bit challenging thir Haley Lee 0 for 11 so far in the Sooners for previous Women's College World Series game but I got robbed here last night yes and and you feel like that was sort of the at bath that haly LE needed to sort of get back in the swing she also was right in the middle of it I know it was a hit by pitch but sometimes that's all need to get right back in it two pitch is in for a strike two balls and one strike but anyone who's anyone who follow sports or softball or Florida State or U they saw Kaye mud's catch in left field yesterday it was unbelievable and gosh I think it fooled everybody fooled Haley Lee too but good to see her put a good swing on the ball she's ahead on the count two balls in a strike and she lines this one hard and foul and into the stands down the right field line and I'll say this it it looks better and you can just see Haley Lee taking hacks so we've talked about the struggles that she's had here at the Women's College World Series her postseason has been unbelievable but a little bit of a slow streak here but she's putting good hacks on the B she's looking looser in the Batters box two balls and two strikes to Lee see if the Sooners can't get something going with two outs the pitch way outside ball three that's the pitch that you'll Chase and such good discipline curveball and sander coock uses this pitch so often and just takes it and runs it right on the other side of the river so almost to the chalk of the other batter box and that's that chase that you see especially with two strikes so very good [Applause] discipline three balls and two strikes to Haley Lee sandercock rocks fires got her swinging inning over good work by Florida State unfortunately in the top half of the first inning setting the setting the Sooners down in order and weatherwise we are good to go and our weather report is brought to you by the Trails Golf Club in Norman where you'll experience everything you love about Golf and More visit Trails golf.com today winds gusting a bit at 13 mph but for now it is absolutely pleasant as Alex drao stares in and Kaye Mudge digs in and the first pitch is a little bit up ball one I really want to see staco settling quickly I feel like kind of the story of her postseason has been not being able to settle in quick enough and Florida state is a momentum team there's a ball that misses a little bit low and away two and0 but Mudge Janik Kerr Kaye Harding and then edinfield right behind that their top four or five hitters are what makes this team go and Jordy ball did such a great job of keeping them in check yesterday two- pitch is hit hard down the left field line Fair scooped up by Riley Boon and holding Mudge to a single but keep an eye on Mudge now she is dangerous over at first base and a lead off single by Mudge here's Janai Kirk stco has to work ahead in the count so that's her opportunity get the nerves out and then now settle in settle in throw strikes work ahead and that's just a good piece of hitting by mudet it actually down the line hit the third base bag so that's a good job by Riley boom staying on it and playing the Ricochet here is jeni cerr first pitch to the center fielder swinging a Miss that's more like it Alex Daka everything we've heard everything and everything we've seen from Florida State not just at the Women's College World Series but all season long has been hard fast short game stealing bases hit and run chops you get the feeling you're going to see something like not here there's a bunt really hard to Burrito the play is to Second and she threw it into center field Breo was a little bit too Juiced on that Jada Coleman did a good job backing it up they had the out at first base they could have easily had the out at second I think but the throw was wide and that's the second error in this championship series on breedo and Florida State starting fast here Runners at first and second for Kaye Hardy I expect the short game again and I absolutely Alyssa burrito 100% trying to get Kaye Mudge even though she runs well she had her at second base with a good throw it was a terrible bunt by Janai Kerr she got it down but it was a horrible bunt first pitch strike to Kaye Hardy it was more like a ground ball but Alysa Breo absolutely made the right decision she just needs to settle down and stay within herself at third you feel a little bit defensively that she's trying to do too much agreed great point no no balls in a strike to Harding fouled it straight back and quickly Alex drao has jumped ahead no balls in two strikes on Kaylee Harding the three-hole hitter 316 average this season for Harding 10 home runs this is the only spot in the lineup with back-to-back hitters that have double digit home runs this season Katie Dak is back in the starting lineup tonight for Florida State so we'll see she's 10 home runs on the 11 home runs in the season at third ground ball to third foul [Applause] good to see straco throwing strikes and the key we talked about this key in the pregame 0212 pitcher counts staco has got to throw quality competitive pitches good misses that are not catching too much plate if you're getting swings they're defensive swings because you are in a pitcher count I want to see a quality two- strike pitch O2 again foul at the pl this is Alex draco's first start since the California game on May 21st she got the start and her last just fantastic outing May seventh against Oklahoma State a complete game six hitter where she struck out one and allowed just four hits Sooners or and allowed a struck out four and allowed two walks the 02 pitch little up Kinsey Hansen was fired up she thought that Harding had swung she popped up and sound like she said there it is and tried to look at the first base umpire to get the call but they say no ball one I think keny was amped up at how good the pitch was right a great O2 pitch yes it was a great O2 pitch you know the stuff we're talking about with two strikes with sto you know kiny Hansen is feeling the same thing the one-w pitch is hit to Breo makes the catch on that little Looper there's one away since that Oklahoma State game just real quick DJ her last few starts have not gone all that well even though she was really good against Iowa state three Innings struck out three but had about I think you described it a 15 pitch laps where she walked a couple of hitters went two and two3 in the start against California but allowed five hits and three runs but since then the opportunity she's given has been okay had a really rough outing against Clemson here's the first pitch to Michaela edenfield now more than anything you want to see her throw strikes I want to see her throw strikes and I feel like part of straco getting the ball to start this game is we have seen srao look a little shaky coming out of the bullpen and Nicole May for the most part and has been pretty good out of the Bullen Bullpen a little ey didn't mean to check swing on the 1 and it's fouled back a ball on a strike that's a great point and we all know Jordy ball it I mean she's throwing the best she's thrown all season right now starting the game or out out of the bullpen it doesn't matter but I feel like part of seeing straco is giving her the best opportunity to be successful and be comfortable one ball and one strike first and second for Florida State one out in a scoreless game swinging a Miss on a dirty off speed strike two that was filthy if stago can keep that pitch through the zone and pull it out of her pocket like that she's going to be in good shape edfield swung out of her shoes [Music] sooner fans stand as the onew pitch just missed on the Inside Edge just missed you heard the reaction of ooze and odds in the background it was warning that's a good pitch it was it was inside but I'll be curious to see come about the third or fourth inning of if that pitch is a strike two balls two strikes the pitch from sraco grounded back to Alex bobbles it picks it up will get the sh out at first I think for a moment she thought about third and when she did she looked to Second and the ball popped out of her glove but she recovered in time to get edenfield and there's two away for Devin flarity and Alex dco he's a couple pitches away from potentially getting out of this tough top half bottom half of the first inning Fielding her position and I will say this I think before straco bobbled the ball she was going for much at third base I I really think she was I mean that ball was hit hard she had a lead Runner but you've got two get out of an inning first pitch hard hit to Jennings plays it off a hop throws to First inning over Florida State hit a couple balls hard off Alex dco but the sooner d stands up after the error on the bun attempt by cerr looking at this spot in the lineup for the Sooners DJ Sanchez and I feel like you can put a big red circle around breedo and and pick either one they've been so good in this Women's College World Series as your player to watch period tonight I agree I think let's roll with burrito she's she's about to lead off the second inning coming off of an uncare UNC characteristic throwing air and we've seen her be a little shaky defensively let's make her our player to watch and see if she can't answer back with the bat Alysa Breo our play to watch brought to you by L's travel stops L's travel stops the heart of the highway burrito in the in in the Women's College World Series was three for nine two runs scored has an RBI here last night went two for two with a run scored and an RBI and Walt scoreless game top of the second inning back to work for cat sandercock first pitch a little bit out ball one now every time I look at Kinsey Hansen I imagine her saying bro over and over to coach casso after after our pregame conversation I want to know if coach replied using the word bro back at any point one ball and no [Music] strikes sandercock delivers burrito swings through it for strike one pretty good juice on that 66 milph that was a hack that's that pitch that's that curveball that you see get that little just last bite at the end and you think you're on it and then all of a sudden it breaks about another inch and you swing and miss so it's going to be so important just to track that pitch and focus on taking it the other [Applause] way one ball and one strike burrito soft grounder towards short up with it as muffley throws not in time not in time it's a leadoff infield single on a slow roller to the left side by Alysa Breo that'll do just finding a way to use the dirt it's amazing the things you can do if you keep the ball out of the air make defense make plays and that would have been a tough one for muffley to make and come up with but that's all you [Applause] need here's keny Hanson the hottest hitting sooner without question in the Women's College World Series the hottest hitting sooner in the postseason as the first pitch to The right-handed hitting catcher is headed home and it's bounced foul coach gasso called her a juggernaut and what a line right well she she is right now I mean you watch her and she's always had that demeanor to her when she steps in the Box I feel like we've said this forever playing it's you feel like something huge is about to happen and she usually [Applause] delivers 5 for 12 in the Women's College World Series calls for time and gets it five for 12 with two runs scored four runs batted in and a home run it's been a good Women's College World Series for Hansen Sooners have the lead off Runner board after an infield single by Alys Saito here's the 01 to Hansen a little bit low one ball one strike Florida State fans didn't like that call it's a good take that's that same pitch that we saw staco throw it's an inside pitch it's on the inner part of the plate it's a little bit off the plate and as of right now it does not look like home plate umpire Robbie guest is going to give that pitch on the inner part doesn't mean you don't throw it keep throwing it there especially with two strikes one ball one strike could burito be on the move here she isn't as ball two misses low Hansen was two for four here last night with two runs batted in and a run scored she's four for eight in the last two games and the only game that she doesn't have a hit in the NCA tournament was the first game against Stanford and she turned around and went two for four against him in the next game that's what you call bouncing back here's the 2-1 pitch from sandercock bounced slowly towards the left side and [Applause] foul one thing that Catherine sander sandercock does so well is the deception between her screw ball and her curveball and I'm going to be honest I'm not a big screw ball fan cuz unless you've got one that that really breaks in on hands just an inside fast so many times but cat sander coock has a good one but along with it she throws her drop ball and she throws it inside and that drop ball looks like a screw ball until the very last minute so that pitch that we're seeing being fouled off is an inside drop that a lot of these tuners are tracking two two is low ball three but they're tracking that's a ball two by the way absolutely so if they can Zone off that drop ball and recognize it it's it's going to be a short day for sander cuz that's that's where she [Music] [Applause] lives Hansen asks for time as she digs back in very patient almost stalking the plate it feels deliberate the pace she's working it feels deliberate here's the 3-2 pitch as Kat sandercock brings it home swings and Pops it up on the infield what's Breo doing burito took off for second base and didn't realize it was a up caught by sandercock and she's forced out at first base on the flyou burrito still doesn't know what happened and she'll Trot back to the bag it's a double play obviously the steel was on there or at least she was going on the 3-2 and when Hansen popped it up burrito I guess never realized what had happened and still didn't even after the play was done and yeah even even if I look at I think it was a run and hit I'm not sure it was a hit and run but she got the steal even then you still anytime you're taking off and you know that your hitter still has the green light you've got a peak first pitch to ericon is a strike that's that's a tough start for for Alissa breedo she just looks a little rattled I mean she just needs to refocus I just I really get the feeling from Alissa bro that she's pressing a little bit you can see it a no ball one strike count to Joselyn Erikson getting her first start since the Clemson Super Regionals and she swings through a rise ball for strike two she is 0 for her last eight at the play Oh for last seven sorry only over for one last great at bat she's had some really good at bats she's going to be a little bit more more deliberate [Applause] here you can really see these sooner hitters trying to get sandercock out of her Pace a little bit cuz she gets the ball back she gets back on the rubber pretty quickly the O2 bounc foul down the third Bas line and we saw it in Kinsey Hanson's at that just being very I'm going to get in the box but if you make me stand here too long I'm going to call time taking her time getting back into the box and we see Erikson doing it here as well so kind of the game within the game a little bit and not letting sandercock control how quickly this game [Applause] moves no balls and two [Applause] strikes in a scoreless game in the top of the second the pitch to Erikson Line Drive fouled on the left side inning started with some promise for the Sooners after the infield single my Alysa Breo but on on the pop out by keny Hansen burrito didn't realize that it was a pop out on the infield and got doubled off at first base so there's two away for Joselyn Erikson but she's behind 02 here and those are the little things again just mistakes that we don't typically see from this team but I mean that's that's Elementary you got to peek oh two looks low and is low one ball two strikes ER does have a multi-hit game in the postseason when two for four with two runs scored in the win over Cal that was also the game where she had her last hit and a good series against Oklahoma State where she went three for eight including a two for three Saturday game a ball and two strikes here to Ericson the pitch bounced foul down the first Baseline as Hannah Sparks does a little dance I will say regardless of outcome for Jocelyn ericon and that's why she got the start here tonight it's it's it's not always about what the stat line reads Jocelyn ericon has been having some really good at bats coming off the bench in pinch hit situations and we've seen it here at the Women's College World Series that's why she got the nod today yeah absolutely it's it's not always about the result we hear this team talk about that a lot and you can see it in J Arison getting rewarded with the start one ball two strikes to the sooner freshman sandercock rocks fires misses outside two and [Applause] two if you're interested in Pitch counts this early in the game think I can say I'm your guy that is 26 now total pitches for sander Cox seven in this at bat very reminiscent of what the Sooners tried to do to CED throw a lot of pitches see a lot of pitches and wear her down slowly but surely here's the 2 two swinging a Miss got her eight pitch at bat and sandercock wins the battle with her second strikeout of the game both strikeouts have ended an inning as we go to the bottom of the second inning M lard left-handed hitting first baseman will lead things off for Florida State Alex drao misses low ball one I know it's early and we're only 18 pitches into Alex Taco's start how you feeling about the way she looks so far I like the way that she responded in a tough situation Runners on first and second nobody out to start the game and air defensively there's a good off speed that falls in for strike one but right on Q I feel like I'm what's going to be such a key in this game for stco is the off Suite she's thrown it a lot so far she's brought it out early which we don't always see her do but I do want to see her come out into count closer to the plate pop up down the right field line hooking [Music] foul feel like a lot of the the bats we've seen so far she's gotten behind 1 2 from time to time so I really like seeing her here one two conversion pitch here two strikes set up something or get M Leonard chasing somewhere out of the Zone M Leonard by the way just a 266 average on the season the onew pitch misses high it's a pretty good spot in the postseason there's not really someone on this Florida State roster that you look at and necessarily has jaw-dropping numbers but there are some concerning trends for L alamina the 2-2 looped on the infield racing in is Grace Lions to make the catch and there's one away that's the two strike pitch that I'm looking for you see you even saw m Leonard do a check swing defensive swing that pitch was nowhere near the Zone The Rise ball up in her eyes it's a great two strike pitch from straco here is hie way caser had a homer here on Monday first pitch is line towards the Gap in left center field but racing over to make the catch is Riley Boon and there's two away Boon Shannon through throughout Oklahoma City let's pause 10 seconds for station ID this is Oklahoma Sooner softball from learfield krxo FM and krxo HD Oklahoma City a product of Tyler media your Flagship station for Oklahoma Sooner Sports 1077 the franchise this is just the fourth at bat for Katie Dak of the Women's College World Series in the bottom of the second inning scoreless game first pitch by daak swinging a miss I want to go back to the line drive to Riley Boom for just a second she was positioned perfectly she's playing a little bit closer to the line that's a potential double in the Gap unless J Coleman picks it up and fire throws her out at second but positioned perfectly the 01 pitch is in for a strike 02 I think we can give some credit to a member of the DJ Sanchez coaching Tree on that one Ryan wandic who has just been a fantastic Edition to this staff and this scouting and research he has been nails when it comes to helping put together defensive game plans for the Sooners here's the O2 pitch to Dak swinging a Miss Alex dco rips that face mask off and she's fired up a chest bump from her roommate Kinsey Hansen how about this this is the straco we saw febru February March and April the lightning have stayed away and it looks like we're set for a gorgeous gorgeous night here in OKC it's beautiful and this place is packed there is not a empty seat in the house just you cannot set up a scene and set up a a stadium any better than this tonight it's amazing all right here's Sydney Sanders been a bit of a struggle for Sid over the last few games digs in from the right side of the plate against Kat sandercock in a scoreless games s just one for eight in the Women's College World Series has scored a run and takes the first pitch low for ball one I do want to see Sydney Sanders be a little more aggressive at the plate I feel like she's always patient which is good to see and she's drawn some good walks but she's also let some pitches go by that she is set up to drive I want to see her right now 10 cow if it's there unload be aggressive well here's the pitch and she takes ball too low she's been very patient you're right I mean she had been one of the when she plays more effective walk draw she's drawn three so far in the Women's College World Series and I love it and that's part of what makes Sydney Sanders so good as a hitter is her patience but right here 20 count this is where she's let some pitches go by so if it is something that's sweet she needs to unload the two- pitch is low in ball three cat sandercock we she's working very fast tonight which I think after last night we're all very fine with this is her second start of the Women's College World Series last night was the only game that she hadn't appeared in for Florida State 13 and 2/3 of an inning has allowed 11 hits struck out nine and walked just three she is 2 and0 with a 51 RA in the Women's College World Series 3 0 is a four- pitch walk to Sydney Sanders that pitch there are some Florida State fans who are unhappy but that pitch has not been a strike all night it's inside it's flat out inside and Sydney Sanders as I'm sitting up here saying I wanted to be more aggressive but you've got to be controlled aggressive right controlled aggression but good job drawing the lead off walk here's [Applause] G3 Grace was 0 for one with a sack bunt and a walk last [Music] night and we're playing Grace straight up though in a little tight at third is Hardy well as his Leonard over at first Lions lays down a bunt too hard and foul down the third basine for strike one love the fact that we're seeing some short game here this game is in the third starting to get deeper I mean you're almost to the Midway point in the game you've got to find a way to push runs across and if that means you have to sacrifice outs you have to sacrifice outs but if Grace has gotten the signal I saw coach pull the card out if she's gotten the signal for the sack again you've got to [Applause] execute the 01 pitch sandercock it is a bunt and she bunts it foul and you can see the frustration from up here in the body language of Grace Lions after failing to get that bunt down well those those are the little things that we talk about so often that makes this team so solid base running which we've seen a miscue this evening execution of the short game sacrifice buns which now we're in a two strike count so Grace needs to do something to move Sydney Sanders a chop or something on the ground to find a way to get the job done 324 average on the season for grace she does have eight home runs and she swings did she make it nine deep to left center field it'll hit off the base of the wall Sanders is forced to stay at second she had to hold up to see if Mudge made the play and Grace Lions deposited one on the base of the left center field wall 02 count you can see the frustration in Grace Lions knowing that she didn't get her job done with the sacrifice but that's all right don't bun I'll just hit a single in the Gap Off the Wall the way Mudge attacked it she thought it might get out of here she kind of started trotting towards it and then Grace Lions even put her finger up she thought for a moment off the bat it might be gone but that thing literally hit right off the base of the wall and Mudge got it back in quickly and here's Riley Boon oh that seven eight n spot and the lineup keeps cooking for the Sooners makes them so tough when the bottom half of your lineup is your table setter gosh good luck but Grace Lions went down and got the drop ball big time it's a bun by Boon if it stays Fair it's trouble it's rolling down the line and it's fair Harding tried to let it roll foul and it just took a right turn to stay in play and the bases are loaded for J Coleman listen to the chance of Boon and here come the Sooners and talk about applying pressure and suffocating a defense and here's the thing Kaye Harding made the right call because Boon was going to be safe it was a gorgeous bun and it hit the chalk and just rolled right back in L Alam is out to chat with cat sandercott get some of these early check-ins taken care of as always thanks to Judy who's T tuning in Maui today not too bad teres down in Austin our buddy Mark Worley always in Ohio Doug Hamilton is dodging storms in hawkley Texas tonight oh the shadid crew is turned in uh tuned in from Florida H the boss man the Bri man Brian Vineyard in Weatherford Texas tonight stepen York and his wife are tuned in this evening and I wanted to add one very special shout out Jack May is Nicole May's younger brother he is celebrating his 17th birthday in his first ever trip to the championship series happy birthday Jack meetings are over here we go basic is loaded nobody out here's J Coleman who lives for this moment right now lives for this moment Coleman flyed out to left her last time up the pitch oh she had a cut and fouled it straight back strike one what I love so much about Riley Boon at bat pitch one laying down a bunt doing her job but it was a beauty man and Kaye Harding even if she had picked it up Riley Boone was going to beat it out for a single anyway so you may as well try to ride it out and see if you can get lucky with a [Applause] spin 415 average on the season for Jada Big 12 Player of the Year the8 n and one spots in this lineup continue to thrive here's the 01 popped up behind home plate but that's going to get out of play and Jada quickly behind on the count no balls and two strikes you can feel Florida State their fans are on their feet U fans are on their feet I think the whole Stadium's on their feet but you can just feel that this is almost like a turning point in this game tiar Jennings Waits on Deck Sanders at third lions at second Boon over at first the Florida state infield is in here's the 02 pitch time called for and granted by J Coleman wait time called for by J Coleman and granted by Robbie guest our home played umpire trying to get sander coock out of her groove it's it's part of the game plan here's the O2 pitch to The sooner center fielder headed home oh just missed loow in that was a really good pitch on 02 it's a really good pitch and a really good take and that inside corner just off the plate it has not been a strike and it doesn't look like it's going to be called a strike at any point but really good discipline cuz that was a drop offall and that's a pitch that we have seen some of these sooner hitters Chase one ball two strikes nobody out sacks juice in a scoreless game top of the third inning the pitch to Coleman H foul again behind home [Applause] play Sandra's thrown a lot of pitches pushing 40 right she's up to 39 Jada Coleman is now in charge of retrieving the foul ball that rolled all the way down her energy is contagious her confidence is exciting it's you see someone that knows they want to be up in this kind of moment and Embraces it and's see what Jada can do with it good V good here the on two pitch up and in now we've seen the Sooners get called for swinging on a couple of those but so far they're not going to check with either umpire Jade is laughing and here's the thing about that she is her hands are so quiet so many times and we see it from hitters in the OU lineup Florida State doesn't matter who you're facing we've seen it here a ton at the Women's College World Series of check swings but her hands are so quiet it's that wasn't even close when a lot of times you'll see that and get the strike call because those hands are moving moving so much with the knob of the bat here's the two2 to Coleman bounc to the right side Leonard has it they'll go home for the force out no play anywhere else the Florida state infield was in that was a nice play by m Leonard and they forced out Sanders at home but the base is Stay Loaded with one out and here's TR Jennings who lined out to Second over where where Devon flarity is in the top half of the first inning getting an opportunity here in the top half of the third P gaso chatting at third with her Captain Grace Lions so lions at third Boon at second Coleman at first that infield stays in keep seeing a lot of pitches and I like the aggression here J Coleman swing first pitch there's a rise well out of the zone for ball one and you can expect sander Cox to go back to that drop ball changing the eyes up maybe looking at a little bit of Stamford film cuz Jennings struggled On The Rise Ball but I would expect to see something down trying to force Jennings to you to hit a ground ball just like J Coleman Jennings started the party on Saturday against Tennessee a three-run home run here's the pitch that's in for a strike a ball and a strike up to 42 pitches now for cat sandercock we're through two and a third that's one of the first pitches on the inside corner to a righty or a lefty that we've seen called for a strike so I feel like we've seen that exact same pitch be called a ball a lot in this game so I I like TR Jennings taking that pitch cuz it hasn't been a strike one ball one strike the pitch to Jenny's little Looper towards short off a hop muffley makes the play throws home and gets lions and now cat sandercock is a pitch away from getting out of this Jam after a couple of fielders choices have cut down Runners at the plate and I'm a little bit surprised that muffle decided to come home with it instead of trying to turn two but that's a respect for the speed of TR Jennings yeah I think the opportunity would have been there had that ball been hit a little bit harder you saw Jennings get jammed a little bit and muffley was already shaded in so I'm not sure they would have had Jennings at first but I'm kind of with you the opportunity could have been there but when you're not putting runs on the board can't give any away Haley Lee struck out her last time up and rips one to left field falling fast but Mudge comes in to make the catch and the sooner strand of the base is loaded T up it's not great body language not great energy quite yet from either one of these teams and that's odd to see especially from this sooner team yeah and we're seeing the celebrations right just like we always have um we saw it in that inning from lions and Boon you know as they got something rolling but I don't feel like we're seeing a ton of energy from either side especially when I see the teams out on defense just feels you get the feeling from both sides that they're almost just kind of sitting back and waiting for something to happen you know the big hit first pitch to Josie muffley the N hole hitter misses Up and Away ball one but that big swing and momentum I feel like both teams are just sitting and waiting for it to happen instead of taking it and attacking it one ball and no strikes scoreless game bottom of the third stonco misses with one and falls behind on muffley two balls and no strikes Josie hitting just 261 on the season for Florida State and in the Women's College World Series she's just two for nine don't Walker and there's ball three and it's not close and as I said it with bases loaded and Jada Coleman at the plate a turning point this is another turning point in this game the momentum is in Florida State stck out they just got out of a Bases Loaded Jam facing the toughest part of the sooner lineup go after muffley in the N hole 3 0 not even close Ball Four did we mention that between Innings Nicole May went down to the pin and it started to get loosened up for the Sooners don't think she's quite ready yet but there is some activity M Leonard is heading down to the Florida State pin we saw Florida State use that game plan against Oklahoma when they played in March where Sandra Co started and sooner started to hit her hard after a couple of innings scored a run and then they started going through their Bullpen and sander coock eventually reentered oh you won that game but in this instance the Sooners have not been able to push a run across despite some great opportunities the first pitch is a strike to the leadoff hitter Kaye Mudge who has one of the well one Florida State hits three for the Sooners one for Florida State it was a leadoff single right down the third base line and it's a tough spot for breedo DJ because she's drawn in expecting some short game rightfully so oh one is in for a strike and quickly staco Works ahead of the count now no balls in two strikes after a four pitch walk to Josie muffley who by the way is 12 for 14 on stolen base opportunities this year good to see sto get back in the zone cuz that four pitch walk to muffley none of those pitches were close especially the last two were way out of the there's a good 02 pitch that missed a little low but I don't think sto liked it she kind of patted her chest on me it was a miss it that pitch was supposed to be up and it was down and out those are things that you track too right so even though the pitch is a ball and to the to the Blind Eye you don't think much of it nothing happens it's still a big Miss there's a bouncer to third to Second for one that's all they'll get that's all they'll get good throw by burrito remember in the first inning a play like that she launched it out into center field so one away and they'll trade Josie muffley who was 12 for 14 on stolen bases this season for Kaye mud he was 19 of 25 can I just say that all the talk and we heard coach gaso talk about it again today about how Florida State runs and uses the short game and tries to chop and do all these things I feel like this is a team that is a little bit outside of how they approach things as well foul ball back to us oh so close so close should have do one of these days I haven't been able to check with USA softball to see just how sturdy this netting is this is our opportunity cuz the Net's here yeah I mean the Net's right here in front of us but knowing my luck I'll just roll down and I'd roll down like the softball Hansen can take care of me be great Kerr her last time up reached on that air she lines one past to diving Grace lions in the left field Florida state has its second hit of the game and they've now put Runners at first and second with one out for Kaye Hardy the onew hitters in the Florida state lineup are two for four so far but have reached base both times Florida state's third base coach Travis Wilson went over and chatted with Lon Alam and Troy Cameron on the top step of the Florida State Dugout see if something might be in play here I feel like I mean we saw Kaylee Harding in this exact same spot and she hits one deep to center field Coleman went up and took it away again Jana Coleman did it again she took away a three-run home run from Kaylee Harding timed it snagged it stole it she is the greatest show on dirt and her name is Jada Coleman are you kidding me right now Jada two away and it was so routine J Coleman tracked that back and waited and waited and waited to time it that was not a I just pulled that out of my hat and made a catch it was routinely planned in the way that she approached the ball which makes it even more impressive unbelievable Jen roacha is going to come come out and chat with her pitcher Patty gasso is going to bring the infield together there's been two incredible robberies in this championship series Kaylee Mudge took away a walk-off last night from Haley Lee and J Coleman just went over the fence and took away a three-run home run from Kaye Hardy and there's two away and Jin roach is being very very link in his combo stco hasn't looked great this inning can I can we also just talk about the fact that Kaye Mudge who has 19 stolen bases on the season didn't even attempt to tag When J Coleman caught the ball at the wall she went back to the bag and usually you would see someone like Mudge take off and get to Third and she didn't even attempt it it was a no never mind all the meeting are over and here comes Michaela edenfield who has that same power first pitch drops in for a strike by the way Kaylee Harding is going to be happy to be done with Jada Coleman Coleman threw her out from the wall last night and then took a three-run home run away from her on a ball that should have left this yard if any normal human was in center field but that's J Coleman there's a ground under to third Brito Scoops it takes it to the bag ining over oh the Sooners escaped thanks to the athleticism of Jay Coleman here's Alyssa burrito singled her last time up an infield single one of the three sooner hits some swings through the first pitch from sandercock for strike [Applause] one starting to see sander coock used the rise a little bit more she's been living with that drop and throwing the screw ball and then going to the drop both on the inside part of the plate starting to see her open counts with riseball so you get the feeling that Florida State in their pitch calling is expecting the Sooners to come out more aggressive the second time through the lineup no balls and a strike pop fouled on the right side and that's going to get a couple rows up into the stands nice catch by a [Applause] fan I like the catch and then [Music] the holding up of the softball to make sure everyone knows you got it Well Done friend well done that's also the where's the camera where's the camera where's the camera I caught that ball give me my credit rightfully so no balls and two strikes to Alysa Breo in a scoreless game she pops this one fouled on the right side as [Music] well this is a game that was maybe a little bit low on some juice a little bit low on energy but J Coleman just decided all right I got this let's go and Electrify USA softball Hall of Fame Stadium here's a no ball two strike pitch to The sooner third baseman sandercock rocks and fires Line Drive left field line foul I keep replaying J Coleman catching what would have been a three-run bomb and I I I'm going to continue to watch the replay over and over because she went after that with the intent of robbing it she set herself up to make the play on something that was supposed to leave the yard it's [Applause] awesome that makes it even more impressive to me and that it would have been yeah a three zip game and you're climbing out a hole when you've struggled a bit here offensively against sandercock through three the 02 pitch slow roller again towards third that stayed Fair somehow nice play by Harding who throws and gets him we saw burrito find a way to take that same pitch and just muscle it find enough area to stretch it into a single in her last set bat same pitch same outcome but wasn't able to get it into the 56 hole here's kiny Hansen last time up kind of a weird play where Hansen popped out to the circle and Alysa burito didn't realize she had popped out and was taken off for second base it was wild ended up getting forced out at second base or excuse me forced out back at first base Hansen takes strike one on a pitch that looks a little low and [Applause] in I said it back in the first that I was curious to see if that inside corner was going going to turn into a strike it hasn't been a strike and now it is and people get so caught up in balls and Strikes for pitchers but it's even more of an issue when as a hitter you've gone three Innings now into the fourth and you're taking that pitch cuz it's not a strike and now all of a sudden it [Applause] is that pitch dropped and caught the bottom edge of the strike zone 55 mph strike two ball and two strikes on Hansen it's dirty you can just see keny Hansen kind of just kind of gave the the tip of the hat like throw me something else let's do it [Applause] again you hear the Florida State fans let go let's go nolles let's go noes 02 bounced towards short waiting on the big hop as muffley throws and gets Hansen by a step and there's quickly two away since loading up the bases with nobody out in the third inning sandercock has now retired five straight suers 1 2 3 four and five in the lineup here's Joselyn Erikson in that moment in in the game when you almost feel the suitors are going all right they're going to adjust and figure her out starting to see sander cooch change up what she's doing a little bit and we've seen her mix in Rise ball that was a drop ball outside when she's been really hammering the inner part of the plate and getting keny Hansen to reach so as the Sooners we so used to seeing adjusting offensively we're seeing sandercock adjust what she's doing as well and swinging a miss good looking cut but nowhere close to Erikson who swung through the first well the first pitch there and struck out back in the second inning scoreless game as we move to the fourth not quite nerve-wracking gut-wrenching time yet but we're getting close same spot we were last night the 01 misses low one ball one strike well you feel as you're as I'm looking at this game at least the Sooners have had opportunities they have and they've squandered them with a couple mistakes and then just not being able to get that timely hit and as the game goes on it feels like for both sides it's going to be who can get the Timely that's what pitch D pitcher duels are all [Applause] about a one ball one strike pitch to Erikson bounced fouled down the right side had a an eight pitched bat that came up empty for Erikson with that strike out in the second but she's still looking for her first hit in the Women's College World Series so far she is 0 for five an opportunities I'll keep saying it she's still putting good swings on the Bal she truly is and you also got to think about too we're at the point in the season where you start looking forward just the experience for the Freshman next pitch will be the 57th for Kat sandercock winds with a one-w brings it home and misses High two and two on this on this postseason run which started and these numbers are specifically for the NCA tournaments they don't include the Big 12 tournament but ericon is two of two of 10 now but has scored three runs the strikeout in the second inning was only her second strikeout so far the postseason so there is that she's putting the ball in play two two from sandercock until now swinging a Miss ining over that's two strikeouts for Erikson and again since loading the bases with nobody out in the third inning that's six straight retired by Florida State starter cat sander we haded the bottom of the fourth inning we'll see who's in the circle for the Sooners Oklahoma and Florida State are scoreless are going to go back to Alex sto here does this surprise you at all a little um I we've seen Nicole May working in the pen we've seen Jordy ball who is still working in the pin a little bit um sto didn't have a good inning first pitch to Deon flarey is in for a strike but with all that said she's given up three hits and hanging zeros so it's or excuse me two hits and but the thing that you really look at as you're calling pitches and as games get get deeper is what do the outs look like and so far as that pitch misses up for ball one so far in the second time through this lineup you're starting to see the seminal squore the ball up more even if they're not going down as hits in the scorebook flarity her last time up grounded out to second that ended the Florida State threat in the first and now she takes the 1-1 right down the middle ball on two strikes that was 62 mph regardless of of how it it looks right with a couple of scoring opportunities a fantastic play by J Coleman we're still scoreless this has been a defensive SL pitchers duel as the one-w pitch misses low and away two and two and you feel like both teams offensively are looking at missed opportunities so far in this game cuz we've seen on both sides one robbed opportunity from Jen Coleman robbing the bomb in dead center field the two2 high three coach vinales Toby Rolland sent this to me coach vinales just tweeted out better ball skills than at Billy Bowman with a shot of J Coleman going up on over the fence and making the catch he'd probably agree at least today Billy phone's going to be blowing up he's here tonight 3-2 grounded right side nice play by Sanders the race to the bag one by Sid all bounc in front of the plate and then shot up made it an easy play where Sanders was charging anyway that drops flarity to 0 for two with the ground up to First and here's M Leonard Sydney Sanders has been so good defensively we've talked so much about what she does at the plate and you know dring walks as we've seen her do in this Women's College World Series but defensively she has just really been solid and just made plays and made him quietly and made him look smooth M Reynolds ma Reynolds ma Leonard takes the this isn't always sunny uh M Leonard takes the first pitch high for ball one Leonard popped out to short her last time up her overall average on the season is right at 264 and she has a little I didn't mean to check swing that rolls fouled down the third base line be Frank Reynolds ma Dennis Reynolds and sweet D so sorry Ma I've called ma Leonard too Ma Wilson for some reason all weekend long I think I heard a Watson at some point Watson was in there m Leonard has me shook and I don't know why all weekend long it's been the whole weekend the 1 is a little bit low two and one and it's it's been terrible because I did the Florida State games for Westwood and it was fine but as soon as it came to playing OU she became every single Mac on the planet but Ma Leonard but got to perform when the lights are on Play Here we are I know time to step up Linder does have five home runs on the season as she takes strike two two balls and two strikes but we mentioned the numbers for Florida State aren't numbers that will wow you as far as what they've done in the postseason M Leonard is now just two for 29 in the NCAA and she looks uncomfortable against straco that popup back in the second was a check swing the foul ball that she had off stco has also been a check swing in this at bat there's a ground ball foul down the first Baseline just barely that got him to the corner that almost it hooked her on the bag makes you hold your breath for a second cuz it's one of those you're going did that hit right behind the bag I was nervous there for a minute Leonard by the way is in her final season of Eligibility transfer to Florida State as the two two pitch is hit pretty deep to right field at the wall it is gone M Leonard has been struggling in this postseason and she just changed it all with a smooth swing that got all of that one and left the yard for her first home run of the NCAA tournament and it was an off speed pitch and M Leonard has looked uncomfortable in the box and she still did not put a really nice swing on that pitch either it was off speed and she just glat out caught it out front didn't even finish her swing and just I'm going to say accidentally barreled it up really cuz it wasn't a it was not a pretty swing and she was caught out front it's her first home run since April 22nd here's hi wayer first pitch in for a strike beauty of all this Sen's got to get on the board anyway one run doesn't hurt much so if they're going to leave the yard at least they're doing it without anyone on base you've got to put runs on the board against sandercock regardless here's the 01 pitch it's up high one ball and one strike well here's what'll be interesting keny Hansen steps out barking words of encouragement towards dco here's what's interesting now if you're Patty gasto what do you do I think it depends on what the top of well number one you got to get out of this inning as drao especially going through the 789 part of this lineup there's a strike one ball and two strikes but I think some of it depends on what the top of the fifth for the Sooners look like I think if they get on the board we see Jordy ball no question um it looks questionable still we may see Nicole may but I think that since this game is getting deep Jordy ball is probably where it's going one two is low two balls and two strikes one nothing Florida State the simal strike first nothing has been jaw-dropping or well outside of a catch by J Coleman that took away a three-run home run but in either team's attack really so far the 22 has hit hard but foul down the third Baseline it it's felt very anti-climatic I guess it and not that either team is playing poorly um they're not not that pitchers are throwing poorly they're not um but you almost it's I think not seeing timely hitting Fels fuels that a little bit but you know we've seen some good defensive plays we've seen some not so hot defensive plays it just feels [Applause] there's a swing and a miss on an off speed Alex drao bounces back after giving up the Home Run for strikeout number two on the game bounces back throwing the same pitch that just got hit out of the park so I love the confidence and the difference between the pitch that she just threw to wayer and the pitch that she threw to Leonard is it had movement throwing a change up that just changes speeds times ferals run into it like what we just saw from M Leonard but first pitch to Katie Dak is low for a ball when a change up has downward movement that's when you see the swing throughs good adjustment Katie Dak a strikeout victim her last time we mentioned it it it had been a minute since we'd seen Katie Dak in the Florida state lineup the right-handed hitter h a three-run homer on off straco in Norman as she pops this one into left field iy Boon calls off J Coleman makes the catch and Alex sto gets out of a rough fourth J Sanchez I'm Chris plank this is Sydney Sanders digging in against cat sandercock first pitch in the top of the fifth inning sander coock has been fantastic for Florida State that first pitch is inside for ball one Sanders walked to lead off to third the best inning the Sooners have had so far when they loaded the bases with nobody out and came away with a goose EG DJ yeah and you could just sort of feel the momentum shift to Florida State a little bit but you want to see the energy coming from the Sooners but Sydney cers had a really good at bat off of sandercock drawing the walk the one oh misses low ball too she's in a good position here again and I'm going to continue to say it I want to see her unload on a hitters count Pitch 2 if it's there unload attack if not take it and walk again we're good with that too two balls and no strikes good point take it if it's not out of the Zone but if it's there let's go let's rip the two- pitch is swung and driven deep to right field Sydney Sanders knocks it up with a two-run homer over the right field wall Sanders got all of that one goes opposite field and Marina Hines North comes to life as sooner Nation gets excited because Sid Sanders has brought him to their feet and we're tied at one let's go this crowd needed something yes and we have watched Sydney Sanders take the 2 a lot this week and she said no more and the best part about it is it was Oppo and just seeing a pitch and driving it as we're sitting here talking about 20 attack that's how you answer Sydney Sanders we're going to see Jordy ball here's Grace Lions think you're right first pitch to G3 is a little bit up ball one Grace singled her last time up on a ball that any normal day probably would have been a double they're delivering the Home Run ball to Sydney Sanders [Applause] appearance they found him always a cool [Music] moment here's the one0 pitch to G3 she swings and fouls it straight back for S Sanders that home run in the it's her first of the Women's College World Series and it is also for Sid is this right her fourth of the postseason how about that one ball and one strike Grace Lions Waits here's the 1-1 pitch grounded foul down the third Baseline not going to lie it kind of surpris me to see how many that's Sanders have been hitting so far in this postseason it just Sydney Sanders is just just is kind of one of those players that just quietly goes about her business and everything that she does too we talked about it a little bit defensively of it's just I'm here it's routine this is what I do and it's consistent and same thing at the plate and I'm with you I didn't realized that was her fourth bomb that's a big one though and Ninth total on the season the one two the Lions is lifted pretty deep to left field Mudge has a beat on it leaps but it's gone it's gone D3 left the yard the Sooners go back to back and they've taken the lead in the top of the fifth Inning on a two-run shot from the captain this team answers this team answers they do it better than anybody in the country straco gives up the bomb and the Sooners match it with two after they had been pretty quiet offensively off of sandercock Grace lions with her third hit of the Women's College World Series she came into tonight just one for six in this world series now she's hot just like we told you tends to happen when she's struggling and right Boon will back with the bases empty nobody out in the Sooners have taken a two to one lead first pitch to Boon is laced toward center field but Janai cerr had a beat on it and there's one away that ball was [Applause] smoked 789 789 they've done it all Year by the way with J Coleman coming to the play we got this note right before the game started courtesy of we great friends over at ESP and about the bottom part of that Oklahoma lineup coach Karen John's helped us out two1 Sooners here's the first pitch to Jada shows bunt takes a ball Jada's 0 for two but has reached base the eight n and one hitters for the Sooners are a combined now at least in the case of lions hitting in the eighth spot tonight 17 18 of 36 with 10 runs scored 11 runs scored seven runs batted in three doubles to triple and now three home runs and three walks that's not bad from the bottom part of your lineup as sandercock misses with a one pitch it's two balls and no strikes this team offensively I mean you never get break and people have said it and said it and said it we've said it a million times but one massive difference between Florida State and OU um is the fact that the bottom half of this lineup does not have any holes in Florida States they do they do and you can see it statistically you can see it in game little gamesmanship going on between Coleman and sander coock Jada digs back in boy if we go back to back to back here look out instead that ball tips off the Mt of edenfield and heads to the back stop ball three what did you say right before this inning who you thought was coming inord ball Jordy ball he might have been on to something two to one sooner win the top of the fifth inning backto back home runs from Sid Sanders and Grace lons I guess they can't go back to back to back sorry I forgot about Riley Boon's incredibly hard hit all to center field there was only a laser for a line out to center field here's the 3oh pitch that strike one and Jada had tossed her back and headed down to first base that's a strike yeah they a little little Dramatics here she she points at herself says my bad has a smile on her [Applause] face she knew it it's a good pitch appreciate the [Applause] enthusiasm he my bad I wasn't trying to show you up don't call a strike on a pitch nowhere close to the Zone please here's the 3-1 Colman swings and lifts one deep to right field at the wall oh it's caught wayer crashed against the wall as she reached up and Coleman's fired up as she heads back to the Dugout getting her teammates up that's two away I thought that ball was hit harder than Sanders ball and it comes up just short here's TR Jennings I say this all the time but you want to know when a team has figured out a pitcher it's when those outs look like Riley Boone and look like J Coleman that's when you start to worry cuz you know it is just a matter of time here's the first pitch to tr little bit low and in ball one I will say this sander coock is having a come back in the zone cuz she's working behind the count that screw Ball's now missing low the drop ball starting out of the zone and now finishing in the dirt so these hitters are now able to Zone pitches off and take them away making sandercock have to come to the plate which he didn't have to do early in this game Kennings gets jammed grounds it to Second flare up with it throws inning is over damage is done Sooners have taken the lead as we head to the bottom of the fifth inning one home runs and the Sooners just went back to back in the top of the fifth inning to take a two to1 lead with DJ Sanchez I'm Chris Plank 9-1 and two hitters for Florida State against Jordie ball what do you need to see what have you seen from Jordy she just needs to keep on keeping on she has been unbelievable in this Women's College World Series she was so good last night against Florida State mixing her pitches and working ahead go after the N hole here first pitch misses up to muffley who reached on a bun her last time up but was forced out at second on a ground ball to third that Alysa Breo made a nice play on Jord needs the beauty of bringing being able to hold her until the fifth is she only goes through this lineup one time yep one0 a little bit in two balls and no strikes this is the fifth appearance in the fifth game of the Women's College World Series for Jordy ball she's 4-0 and in 21 and 2/3 of an inning she has struck out 30 walked three and allowed 12 hits opponent's hitting just 158 against her here comes the 2- pitch from Jordy ball swinging a Miss such a good two pitch and muffley she was swinging out of the hand and that pitch wasn't a strike but enough through the zone to get muffley to bite but get the feeling that muffley two she was going I'm I'm taking a swing two balls and a strike the pitch swinging a Miss strike two Jessica Bane passed along the note from ESPN that it was the 500th home run of the season for Oklahoma third straight season and the only team to ever do that a lot of Firsts taking place here at the Women's College World Series and understandably so two- two pitch bounced softly towards third and it will trickle foul Jordy ball in the season 22-1 with a 92 erra she's thrown 144 in a third Innings 189 strikeouts to 37 walks and this is fitting here on a two strike count [Applause] Florida State hasn't been able to get it done with two strikes on Jordy ball the pitch fouled back in fact during the regular season game that Florida State played against Jordy ball they were 0 for nine with two strikes with six strikeouts last night with two strikes Florida State hitters were 0 for 11 with two strikes with 10 strikeouts and zero hits I love that stat and I think that that also shows Jordy ball what type of pitches she's throwing in two strike counts and it's been an issue at times not necessarily for Jordy but for the staff as a whole two two line fouled down the first basine say this muley's putting up a fight seeing a lot of pitches something kind of funky happen on that swing she looked out like she hurt her leg she's wearing a bulky right knee brace and and it almost looked as if she had started favoring that right knee and in fact she's still not good she's going to take some time to stretch out Travis Wilson is going to come down and check on her whatever she did the junior out of Winter Springs Florida either wrenched something or stepped wrong two to one Sooners in the bottom of the fifth inning haven't seen a replay of it yet here in the booth until you said it playing hadn't even noticed the knee brace so that makes a lot more sense to me now but she's battled a couple different knee injuries which makes even tough she's a short stop and she's a very good defensive short stop the two- two pitch to muffley little Looper back to Jordy ball makes the catch and there's one away and muffley wasn't good even after that swing she looks hurt you hate to see that [Applause] she's tough I'm sure she'll try to stay in this game but it will turn the lineup over with one out for Kaylee Mudge who is one for two but has also reached Bas both times on top of the lineup for Florida State they're one and two hitters Mudge and Janai cerr of each re reach Bas all four plate appearances the bun is popped up hits in Fair territory nice little Back Spin roll foul it would have been an easy out for Hansen if she could have found it right away but she couldn't find it and she just couldn't see it and not something we see often from keny hands but it happens especially when there's a spin on it and I think she thought at first that it was popped further out than it actually was and then just lost it but good heads up play just letting it roll foul and reading the spin no balls in a strike to Mudge oh that pitch is perfect strike two Mudge last night went 0 for three against Jordy ball ball a complete game two hitter with 10 strikeouts one walk 97 [Applause] pitches 2-1 Sooners bottom of the fifth inning one out here's the pitch from Jordy ball who rocks and fires Miss low one ball two strikes Jordy is bringing out the drop ball and she didn't use it much yesterday and hasn't used it a ton but we're seeing her throw pitches and change the eyes down so much more than what we saw her do 24 hours ago a ball and two [Applause] strikes the pitch from ball couldn't check or swing check with that umpire third oh he says she did I thought she broke did not and a pretty good umpiring crew here tonight that's Mike Burwell who is a terrible home plate umpire but doing a nice job on the bases two balls and two strikes with one out in the bottom of the fifth inning here's the pitch from Jordy ball now foul do it again we uh had a you and I went down there's a senior rules expert that is here and I know everyone loses their mind about Crow hops we did it with Kelly barnhard every everyone Barnwell excuse me everyone does it and um she said this Source said that there might be a new rule coming in college softball for it next year and I am 100% on board for It 2 two just misses Full Count I mean just misses they are the rules committee is getting together and they're just going to they're going to take it out of the game from the perspective of the fights online you're going to be able to you're going to be able to Crow Hop in college softball but it's got to be voted on by the coaches so we'll see also they're working on a new rule for in or out of the box that'll be fascinating here's the 3-2 pitch from ball that Ball's popped up to center field Jada Coleman's under makes the catch two away Florida state they're seeing more pitches off of Jordy I mean she's having to battle for these outs but she's doing such a great job of not giving in and sometimes when you see hitters who are fouling pitches off and fouling pitches off you give in a little bit and you miss pitches and she is continuing to throw and hit spots here we go two way for Janai [Applause] CER Jordy who has not given up run out of the pin this season takes Our Miss low ball one cerr as we mentioned has reached base both times now they did credit her with a sacrifice punn in that first inning but she ended up reaching on an air that was an E5 and then she's singled into third here's the one ball no strike pitch from Jordy ball line to right field but Torres doesn't even have to barely move makes the and the inning is over obiously we've seen two two bombs but haly Lee lined out to left fielder Mudge back in the third and it was hit well she's over for two today with a strike out and a fly out and she checks her swing on the first pitch and take strike one on a pitch that looked a little bit up I was watching in between Innings and JT gaso had these U hitters Outside The Dugout for for an extended amount of time and you get the feeling this game's it's late it's late one-run lead the G the job's not done but you get the feeling at JT gastos in there saying keep the pressure on we've got to keep attacking bouncer pass the third baseman deep in the hole from short muly throws Haley Lee Beat It Out Haley Lee gets her first hit of the Women's College World Series it's an infield single and muley is hobbled as she made the play deep in the hole and just couldn't get as much on it as she wanted or you can just say Haley Lee is that fast Patty gasso is going to talk to everyone here that is the sixth hit of the game for the Sooners the second infield hit two of those hits are Solo home runs and that's where we are two to one Sooners what do you think the message here is from coach casso as JT has joined this meeting as well that includes who all is in there kiny Hansen Alissa Breo and now haly Lee is going to jog to First and ask for noise from the crowd well Haley Lee's not going to first Haley Lee is wanting noise from the crowd because we're going to get a pinge runner here and look who it is it's Jordy B Jordy B has been called upon to pinge run here in the top of the sixth inning last night when Jordy ball pinge ran she scored from first on a Kinsey Hansen line drive that changed the game got to have it and it what's so nice about having a pitcher like Jordy ball who is an athlete and can do a lot of different things when she's tied to that DP it doesn't even cost you a sub she just flexes up and all of a sudden slides into that slot so it doesn't even it doesn't even go down as a sub necessarily in the scorebook but I feel like the message is this I mean this is an important run this is such a huge run late in this game we may see some short game we may see some Runners moving ground ball fouled on the third [Music] Baseline Runners moving you say well Florida State as effective as they've been in stealing bases they've been ineffective at throwing out base runners in their previous 10 postseason games six for six stolen base opportunities for base runners this season they've only thrown out three runners and Sophia nent has moved into the on Deck circle into keny Hansen slot interesting no balls in a strike here's the pitch to Breo sandercock rocks and fires lined into center field falling fast it's down it's down for a hit right in front of Janai Kerr first and second and here's Sophia nent in for Kinsey Hansen and you bring up a great Point DJ maybe this is a situation where you're going to go with a little bit more of an accomplished bunter potentially maybe I I'm up here pantomiming bunt right like as as this is unfolding it's a shock to see someone pinch hitting for Kinsey Hansen with as hot as she's been she's 0 for two tonight with a pop out to the pitcher and a ground out to short there's a plan here and I think nen being in this situation not I mean not that n can't hit a ball on the Gap right she's so capable but I feel like this is such a big spot here nobody out the game is tight maybe a position here for for nent to lay something down ball at second Breo at first Torres on Deck Sophia nen a 274 hitter on the season seven home runs and she takes strike one on the inside corner and this must be a matchup that they like that's got to be something there matchup or I mean it doesn't necessarily always have to be a bunt when I say short game you know putting something on the ground a chop something to the right side so I say that that word short game a ton I don't always mean a bunt but so many different things here for nent to do to move Runners she is Bunning and it's a beauty it's an absolute beautiful will sacrifice bun they'll throw to first to get her nent moves Breo to Second and ball to Third and here comes Elena Torres that is knowing your players and what a nothing on the stat line for nent that is one of the biggest plays of this game executing the bunt and having what would be the fourth run of the game in scoring position right here with only one here's alinaa Torres second and third Florida state has to bring the infield in here Torres has been really good in these spots she's four for nine in the Women's College World Series with a run scored infield in for Florida State 2-1 sooner lead first pitch loow in ball one Sid Sanders or pardon me Joselyn Erikson oh this is for this is in for Ericson I apologize my scorebook fooled me Sid Sanders is waiting on Deck I got this fancy score book and I don't know how to use it one ball and no strikes with Sanders on Deck Torres 345 hitter on the season chance to blow this game open there's a strike all right you got a ball and a strike play the game Molina Torres something you can handle I mean with one out Jordy can move a little bit anything to the Outfield that is at least medium depth is going to score Jordy ball play the game get something that you can handle to get the job [Applause] done one ball one strike pitch to Torres here it comes she swings and bounces it towards short muffley feels it tries to tag burrito does the Run scores and Torres is safe at first it's three to one Sooners every single time that the Sooners have Runners on second and third they run that same play everyone takes off and my immediate reaction was elabo what are you doing she was doing exactly what she's been coached to do by coach gasso so many times you see those Runners try to get in run downs but it was in the five6 hole and jury ball was able to score easily I don't know if muffley ever tagged burrito but they got her getting out of the Baseline so we're going to get another pinge Runner here and with two outs in the sixth here's Avery Hodge to pinge run and S Sanders at the play I will say yes that second and third play we see these this sooner team run it all the time one thing about that that I think burrito could have potentially played a little differently when she saw that it was in the 56 hole and and it wasn't hit hard she could have gotten in a rundown or just had did something to try not to run into that out so little bit of a tough play there I understand it simply because I've sat through those practices first pitch to Sanders is up high I didn't sit through any practices but I've been in those practices Sanders homered here her last time up it's three to one Sooners in the top of the sixth inning with two outs and now Avery Hodge at first first pinge running for alinaa Torres if you could have gotten a situation where Breo could have gotten a bit of a run down maybe could have HJ at second now yes there's a strike I mean the goal of all of that is to not lose your runner in scoring position so bit of a mistake there by burrito again I understand the concept and what she's trying to do but um in a game this tight a runner in scoring position right now would be would be nice especially with Sydney Sanders in the way that she's seeing the ball Florida state has put Bethany Keane in at first base now so Leonard is out of the game with Kean at first here's the one-1 pitch lined to left field but right at much who makes the catch jogging in a couple of steps and that'll do it for the Sooners and was standing up trying to get the crowd to make sure they chose his song it was school Toby ke's been a obvious longtime support of Oklahoma Sooner Athletics and and in fact we thought he was going to be up here in the booth with us last night but they took care of him so TK didn't have to deal with us good to see Toby key all right to the bottom of the sixth we go 3-1 sooner first pitch swinging popped up behind home plate is there room for Kinsey Hansen there is there is she makes the catch and down goes Kaylee Harding in an incredibly frustrating weekend for Kaylee Harding so far our midweek wherever we are in the week she got thrown out trying to stretch a single to a double on a ball that went to the wall by J Coleman and then she had J Coleman climb over the wall and take a home run from her in the bottom of the third inning she is 0 for three the Sooners are four outs away Jordy balls working quick and you mentioned at blank about Harding having a little a tough week and J Coleman's been a lot of it but Michaela edenfield takes the first pitch low ball one I think the the coach and the competitor and me has got to say it J Coleman steals that and robs that home run softball Gods might be a little nicer if you'd slid into second last time so she just didn't even she realized she was toast there's that 3 to one Sooners edenfield is 0 for two the pitch from ball is grounded towards third nice play by burrito gloves throws two away working efficiently and quickly and at this point I've talked so much about energy in this game Sooners have all of it right now and Florida State looks a little bit defeated but we're starting to see these Sooners come to life not just with the sticks but defensively as well bouncing around and Jordy ball is making quick work of these [Applause] [Music] hitters two away for Devin flarity here's the first pitch from Jordy ball ooh just missed a little bit low ball one if the Sooners can hang on here we'll have a celebration of history in college softball the last team to go back to back to back was UCLA 88 889 and 1990 there is some significance about 1990 as well here's the 10 pitch line fouled down the third Baseline that was the first year the Women's College World Series was held here in Oklahoma State UCLA won it in fact credit to channel 4 I think Dylan Buckingham put the Tweet out that had the news coverage of it when it was here and it was wild to watch a game from 1990 and the highlights of it and how different this game in this sport is well done guys over Channel 4 with that here's the 1-1 fouled back one ball and two strikes oh look out that popped off the net [Music] there was an older man that caught it and turned right away and gave it to a little boy that's just down below us that's awesome well done sir well done and we're not there yet you know PL we're talking about that back to back to back I will say this though the fact that that record has been held as long as it has is amazing 30 plus years one two fouled back as well yeah UCLA won their three titles in in a row in 88 89 and 90 the first two years of the NCAA Women's College World Series it was in Sunny Bale California it went to Omaha for 6 years and now it's found a home here in Oklahoma City swing and a miss inting over Grace Lions will lead things off she homered and is two for two on the day first pitch from Sandra coock is in for a strike with DJ Sanchez on Chris blank TJ's gonna the keyw here is try to get down to the field of the post game try and we're going to try to get some interviews with players we'll see how it works no balls in a strike but we still have ways to go here the pitch to Lions is bounced F still a bit to go as you're watching this game unfold I will say I just get the feeling that the Sooners are in complete control Jordy ball in the circle last inning wasn't even close for Florida State offensively they have shown that they're they've got a beat on sandercock and backto back runs in the fifth and sixth no balls and two strikes this one's bounced to third nice play by Hardin man she's got a rocket pros and there's one away Harding has a hose maybe there was also some frustration in that too from Harding was had a rough weekend I keep saying weekend it feels like this should be a Saturday night has had a rough two days against Oklahoma she had a rough day in the field in the National semifinals she had a ball that she usually makes a play on that was ruled an err and then she had one go right under her gloves a couple tough Fielding moments over there at third here's Riley Boon shows that fun fouls it back Riley Boon is one for two so leoo Leo Brien Amo is in the Westwood One broadcast Booth right next to us and she has the all-time record for the best batting average in the Women's College World Series no one in college softball has had a better batting average in the Women's College World Series than Leah am tonight Riley Boon had a chance to match her o what is it what's the number Leah hit 564 in the Women's College World Series here's the 01 pitch bounce to the right side easy play taking it first and there's two away that's the Florida State first basem Bethy Keane you going relatively quickly here in the seven we'll see if maybe Jada Coleman tries to slow it down a bit and absolutely she does here is here is the note from our buddy Ryan radkey and Larry Cy and all the great people over here at Westwood one now obviously goes by the weight side with boo one for three tonight but with her three at bats last night she had qualified for the Women's College World Series career batting average record she was hitting 53 three second all time to Leah in the Women's College World Series if Boon would have gone three for three tonight she would have moved past Leah to first place she went one for one and they started bringing it up but I don't think anyone's going to catch Leah O'Brien on that fight she was a stud but I think we saw someone in Riley Boon earn a spot on the Women's College World Series team oh I my ballot was due at the end of the fifth inning we were kind of busy sorry it's when the Sooners took control of this game first pitch to J Coleman is up high for ball one Oklahoma fell behind one ZIP in the bottom of the fourth inning on a solo home run from M Leonard U then responded with back-to-back home runs to start the fifth from Sydney Sanders and Grace Lions Insurance run in the six it's 3-1 suas here's the one to Coleman that caught the outer edge one ball one strike Jada on the night is 0 for three but did reach in the third inning on a fielder's Choice they've started the wave here in Oklahoma City that means everyone's getting a little bit bored that's or they realize they're running out of time in this game I feel like we haven't seen the wave all week so I'm happy to see it and it's strong well done yes one ball one strike here's the pitch to The sooner center fielder little bit Up and Away two and one I know someone very happy right now about the wave now be Gwyneth Violet plank sitting in section 115 tonight my kids usually couldn't care less about the game but everything around it there she goes there you go coming back around are we supposed to do this too or we'll do it anyway there you go Jada very deliberate in the batterers box here finally digs in two balls and a strike sandercock stares in brings it home going in ball three you can really feel Jada kind of trying to slow the tempo down a little bit and not make this inning so easy for sander coock and there's also a little bit of me too as it was two quick outs from from lions and boom Going they're just ready to get out there and get these three outs and M say let's go but glad to see Jada understanding the game and making sandercock and Florida State stand out there a little bit try to extend the inning with two outs here's the 3-1 pitch to Coleman strike two and that is the second time Jada has started to jog down to first base on what she thought was Ball Four nothing J Coleman will do at the plate tonight we top one of the greatest catches we've ever seen at the Women's College World Series it changed the entire landscape of this game without a doubt changed everything about this game three balls and two strikes Jennings Waits on Deck crowd roars the wave has died down the Full Count pitch to The sooner center fielder foul straight back I'm sure that there are some emotions for cat sandercock too right now realizing that she is in the closing moments of her collegiate career potentially if this team doesn't rally in the seventh inning and to her credit she's done her part she's given up eight hits tonight it took a backto back home run job to take take the lead for the Sooners but there's not there's really not much more you can say she's been really good the Sooners to this point have just been better and that's what you expect that's what you expect on this stage best against the best 3-2 swung on and popped up to shallow Centerfield muffley races out makes the catch ends the inning the Sooners are three outs away we head to the bottom of the seventh inning Oklahoma three Florida State One buckle up sooner Nation we're heading to the bottom of the seventh this is Sooner softball from learfield listen to this [Music] crowd a Boomer Sooner chant that resonates from all corners of USA softball Hall of Fame stadium and all across the sooner [Applause] [Music] Nation here we go 3 to one Oklahoma leads Florida state in the bottom of the seventh inning and Matt Leonard who is responsible for the only Florida state run will lead off it's three to one and she homered to give Florida State the lead in the fourth first pitch is low for ball one Homer and didn't even finish her swing it was it was wild but doesn't matter at this point I will say this if this place right now doesn't give you chills it's amazing what this fan base is is doing right here there's a strike one ball one [Applause] strike I can't stop laughing at watching kaani rickets and Destiny Martinez trying to hold up signs and they put a chain that blocks their ability to run through one section here's the 1- one F off another two strike count she's been in not just tonight we've seen Jordy work ahead and counts all week that's part of I me part of the reason she's been so successful and just throwing such good pitches that are working and looking like strikes one ball two strikes the pitch bounced foul [Music] [Applause] [Music] three runs on eight hits for the Sooners things were looking Bleak after stranding the bases loaded with nobody out in the third inning and then Florida State responded with a home run to take the lead in the fourth but U responded with back-to- back homers in the fifth here's the one-w pitch from ball fouled back good cut by Leonard as much of a struggle as as it's been for mck Leonard in the postseason she's had some good Cuts here tonight she has and she's not getting cheated in these hacks off Jordy ball I mean she is she's taking swings I expect that's what we're going to see from Florida State here this seventh and they're they're just going to take hacks and try to do anything they can to to extend

carry over DJ to 2024 Dynasty you already said it Plank and we talk about softball we talk about U softball teams other softball programs I don't care what sport you're talking about this is one of the most dominant teams in all of sports to ever play the game or any game it's it's unbelievable and you are witnessing we are witnessing something that so few people ever get to see it's unreal man it is unreal the celebration is on all right DJ good luck DJ Sanchez is going to head down the field before you do let's talk about two things from tonight the perseverance of this Oklahoma Sooner offense the plan Patty and JT gaso had in place they never tapped out they never got frustrated they stayed the course they stayed the course and they never stopped and you just saw a team that never pressed you we saw a team that never looked like they were concerned or played tight or timid they just continued to to trust and Trust in themselves trust in each other trust in the process and I think what makes this even more amazing is everything that has surrounded this team this isn't just a team that's winning a national championship is hard enough let alone the win streak back to back
