let's see if we have any fight left and can avoid the run rule.

We have no real 1B and no one on staff that's great at teaching fielding. I am ok with recruiting primarily hitters and not fielders, but you have to still work on fundemantals and coach them up. Footwork at 1B is basic stuff.

There's an epidemic of bad blocking in softball (and baseball to a lesser extent) right now. Kids these days.

We have the tools to contend, but we are in a funk right now and have been for some time. We looked great on the road to start the season, but struggled a bit once we came home. Now the wheels are kinda falling off.

Buying a New Vehicle in this environment
It's been answered above, but I'll elaborate more on the why. Ignoring covid-era inventory-shortage mania, they often make very little on the car sale itself due to competition and price transparency on the internet. Sometimes as little as several hundred dollars. They have very high margins on financing: 1) they will often mark up the interest rate from the bank (called the buy rate); 2) they get origination commissions/fees from the bank for facilitating the loan; 3) they often get folks to buy all sorts of shit in the finance office, like extended warranties, tire protection packages, etc., that have huge markups. Consumers have very little idea what the fair market price of these products should be (because, unlike the car, they've done no research on these items), and the dealers won't quote you the full price, just what it does to your monthly payment, making it sound far cheaper than it is. Almost all of this can be bought third party after the sale is over and proper research can be done. Always refuse the shit they try to sell you in the finance office.

Well at least we won the series. We are not the best team in the country, however. Lol.

I’d like to see her get more looks there. I love Ashton, especially in the field, but hate slapping, especially straight slapping. on another note, it looks like Kavan brought her A game today.

Plus it’s like 185 to left center.

This tiny ballpark is joke in my opinion.

I feel like Cimusz has been a little overlooked in her time here. She's a good defender and a solid hitter.

Texas Softball 2024 - Farewell to the Big 12 (and back to OKC?)
ok - that makes more sense. Hope she gets back soon.

10 runs should be enough to win the game for you, so this is on pitching and defense. I was not surprised by defensive miscues, but i was surprised at the pitching meltdown. I don't know what was up with Gutierrez. Let's see how we bounce back. At the plate, leaving Stewie on the bench in favor of Goode (who has only 2 hits this year against decent teams) was boneheaded, particularly since Goode is not good at 1st (no one is apparently). In that little league park, you want all the power bats in the lineup you can get.

Not sure I like Goode at 1st.

Bella needs to move back to our leadoff imo.

Estelle with a great inning. Should have gone to her after the 2nd homer.
