Texas @ Arkansas Series Thread
You can't go up there and try to pull the ball against a guy, especially a lefty, with a good changeup and curveball. You have to look to take it up the middle or away to make sure you're not out front. When you do that, there's only one pitch he can get you with and that's the fastball. Trying to pull everything means he's got multiple out pitches. When we're really raking, we hit the ball opposite field consistently. It ain't rocket science.

Texas Softball 2025 - Second to no one.
Letdown periods over the course of a season are inevitable in softball and baseball. Great teams like some of the OU juggernauts have them too; they just find ways to scratch out wins while playing like shit. We're in the middle of a stretch like that, but it should have us trending upward right in time for the postseason. It's all about timing and getting hot at the right time.

You guys are comical. Can either one of you provide a reference for the baseball statistic "picked off"...? Can you explain this video, discussing lefties/pickoffs and why the very first example provided is the runner going on 1st move and getting thrown out at second by the 1b...particularly why the expert states "Petit picked off David Wright...", "They'll go first move and you can pick them off that way"...?

I played college ball. I understand what happened on the play. The pros in the booth, the guy who makes notations for the books, me, and everyone else who isn't a fucking nerd trying to one up people on the internet, refers to it as getting picked, even if he was going on first move, when the pitcher catches the break and goes to first. The official scoring is "caught stealing" and yes, he was attempting to steal by going first move. The pitcher caught it, picked to first, resulting in the 1B throwing the runner out at 2nd vs. the catcher doing it. Hence "they've got him picked."

h) The Official Scorer shall charge a runner as “caught stealing” if such runner is put out, or would have been put out by errorless play, when such runner (1) tries to steal; (2) is picked off a base and tries to advance (any move toward the next base shall be considered an attempt to advance); or (3) overslides while stealing. You're going to argue semantics/official scoring? "Is picked off a base..." is quite literally part of the official scoring for the "caught stealing" charge. He was picked off. He tried to advance. He was caught stealing. Because he was picked off and tried to advance. FFS.
