Gophers softball
Any softball fans in the house? I've played a ton of fastpitch in my day, now retired. Anyway, I dig watching the College World Series every year. Fun to have the Gophers program be relevant.

Re: Gophers softball
I'm a little embarrassed to have an opinion, but I wish they'd change up the game a little with both the mound distance and the fences. Everything is either a strike out or a home run.

Re: Gophers softball
Holy shit!
Is a 7.93 team ERA bad? What happened to Fredrickson?
Two years ago they were giving OSU everything they wanted until Max ran out of gas.

Re: Gophers softball
I haven't followed as closely as I have in the past, but my daughter watches them quite a bit. High level college softball is a lot of fun to watch, though. Has Denhartog been mashing like she has the past couple years.jffl_commish wrote: ↑Fri May 07, 2021 2:01 pm Huge series this weekend with conference #1 Michigan. Gophers are currently #2.
Jesus, how good would this team look if Kendyl Lindaman hadn't bolted for Florida?

Denhartog doesn't quite have the average as usual, but she crushes the damn ball. I really like Fiser.

Fiser has had an awesome career. She had big shoes to fill when Groenewegen left.jffl_commish wrote: ↑Fri May 07, 2021 6:17 pm Denhartog doesn't quite have the average as usual, but she crushes the damn ball. I really like Fiser.

They know what they did.

Lost 2-1 to #2 UCLA in the regional finals. Some damn good, and legends of the program in their final game today. Partain & Fiser mainly.

Re: Gophers softball
Good showing by that squad in a brutal regional being played basically on home soil for the other 3 teams.

I didn't get to watch it. Why wasn't Fiser throwing? I saw on Twitter that Pease was pitching yesterday.jffl_commish wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 7:39 pm Lost 2-1 to #2 UCLA in the regional finals. Some damn good, and legends of the program in their final game today. Partain & Fiser mainly.

Re: Gophers softball
I think they were saving her for Game 2 since they had to win twice. Pease threw pretty well, so never needed to get yanked. UCLA did the same thing, but yanked their starter pretty early.cmd24 wrote: ↑Mon May 24, 2021 2:22 pmI didn't get to watch it. Why wasn't Fiser throwing?

Re: Gophers softball
UCLA scored 2 runs or less only 3 times all season en route to their 44-4 record so that was a hell of a pitching effort.jffl_commish wrote: ↑Mon May 24, 2021 2:41 pmI think they were saving her for Game 2 since they had to win twice.
