Kendra strikes out to end the inning. We are now in run-rule city. 3 outs and no runs will end the game.
Their clean-up hitter, who had struck out twice previously, homers on the 1st pitch to eliminate the run-rule possibility. 9-2 Gators. That was Rothrock's first earned run allowed - in her 18th inning in the circle.
AK has had an impressive day at third. First time I've seen her play. USF has 2 errors, but really could have a few more. Gators now with 11 hits after Skyler's hr. Brown and Rothrock living up to the hype from the little I've seen.
The only real negative I've seen in this game has been 2 runners hit by a batted ball between first and second. Have never seen that happen twice before softball or baseball.
McClellan lines an RBI single. 12-2. Barnard strikes out in her first Gator AB, I think. Then Goelz lines out to SS to end the inning. 3 more outs and the W is in the books.
Pinch hitter lines a single up the middle for her first career hit. Keagan has to be getting tired after all the pitches she threw yersterday, then 93 so far today.
Bevis is up as a pinch hitter for USF. Hope they don't have a Butthead on their team!! She grounds into a fielder's choice out at 2nd. 2 down.
Pinch hitter lines a single into CF that gets by the ouitfielder and allows the runnder to score from first. 12-3.
