(SB) Ongoing UF Softball Commentary

Lol. I have or tried to

 

Probably the greatest softball game ever played, sadly we ended up on the wrong end of things.

 

I’ve heard being called a Sunshine Pumper is a compliment

 

In the thread from the midweek game we all want to forget (thankfully our players did) someone was asking about my extensive knowledge of NIL. I have none but I read. I posted the title of the article there, you’ll have to google and do the rest on your own. I think it’s worth reading. Apologies for my lack of tech expertise lol.

 

Skylar has to feel a LOT better tonight.

 

I talked to her after the game; she well satisfied with her performance.

 

Our radio announcers were great. Skylars Baaaaaack!

 

I was there. The end of the Gator OKC championship run and the beginning of Oklahoma’s. Great game nonetheless and I stayed for all 17 heart thumping innings.

 

Maybe not this season but we’re coming to take back not just one title but building a dynasty.

 

OMG that was fun to watch last night. So happy to see adjustments with the offense. Several key hits that weren’t HR swings, but strategically aimed through the gaps. Bunts that were executed, sacrifices perfected, stolen bases galore. Pitching improving, with better location and some improvement with pitch calls. Most of all, our Gators finding the will and desire to fight back from loss and imperfection, and saying that mid-week game doesn’t define us. For me that is what Amanda’s excitement and praise mean. This could be a portent of the great things to come for this team. Go Gators!

 

This really is a special group! With a year of experience under their belt and incoming reinforcements it will actually be hard to not win a few nattys in the coming years.

 

Most programs out there would kill to have the success we’re enjoying right now and we’re going through growing pains. Go Gators!

 

Time to get back over the hump. This is the team to do it in the next couple years

 

Looking ahead to Wednesday......does anyone know anything about "the berm/SRO" at FSU? Our group has always been able to nab tix on the secondary market in the past, but this year it looks like berm is the only thing available. Funny thing is, I don't remember a berm despite having been there many times.

Is this like KSP berm where its just way down near the outfield wall?

(I do remember that FSU doesn't bother to plant grass in the on-deck area and has astroturf -- lacks class).

 

Go to the parking garage past left field. Great view.

 

Here is a bright spot from today’s game:

 

FYI. I compared conference statistics of the top five softball teams per D1Softball to that of our beloved Gators.
TX. 334 2.15
OK. 357 2.64
TEN. 262 1.39
OK ST. 268 2.37
A&M 250. 2.95
Ave. 294 2.30

Gators 289 4.36
As you can see the Gators very competitive in BA but world's away in the pitching department. Hope it gets better

 

Every since Rocha left it switched the balance of power

 

How about our Gators...won the series today..came back with an awesome 7th inning

Go Gators
