Score is 0-0.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:32 PM ^
a dinger for a 1-0 lead in the 2nd.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:34 PM ^
The links on MGoBlue go to Washington's game from yesterday.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:42 PM ^
How awful is the University of Michigan's athletic webpage becoming? They can't seem to provide live stats for any sporting events any more; they only link to live stats being provided on their opponents' pages.
If Michigan didn't have to depend on the University of Washington to provide the live stats here, we might be able to follow it in real time.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:56 PM ^
They rely on other team's sites for updates - usually 2 hours behind.
Hopefully the new AD will bring other sports up to speed, or maybe make MGoBlog the officiel site.
n°2 team in the country and blackout total :o(
February 28th, 2016 at 3:38 PM ^
in order in the Top of the 2nd. Still 1-0 them.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:39 PM ^
This is likely going to be a shortened game. Per @umichsoftball, the game will end at 5:30pm due to travel reasons.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:42 PM ^
back home. We were delayed about an hour due to the previous game going into extras.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:44 PM ^
down for 1-2-3 inning. Still 1-0 them, heading into the 3rd.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:49 PM ^
More efficient that MGoBlue ;o)
February 28th, 2016 at 3:49 PM ^
Romero single brings Montemarano around to score. 1-1.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:50 PM ^
with runners at the corner, drives in Monte. 1-1 now.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:52 PM ^
be the best "pure" hitter in M history.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:53 PM ^
Susalla can't get it done with a runner on third; 1-1 through 3.
To clarify a post above: no inning may start after 2:20 PST (5:20 EST) because of Washington's travel needs. An inning in progress at 2:20 will be completed, though.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:58 PM ^
be no problem getting this game in. It is moving rather quickly.
February 28th, 2016 at 3:53 PM ^
B-3rd.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:04 PM ^
then gives up a dinger. 4-1 them.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:05 PM ^
This is not good. What on earth is going on with the pitching? The pitching is usually ahead of the hitting in February.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:06 PM ^
about. Megan will figure this out.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:18 PM ^
Well, maybe. And maybe not. She clearly is missing something that she had last year. And a 3.54 ERA for your #1 or #2 pitcher isn't going to get you through May and into June.
Betsa is averaging 5.5 walks every 7 innings. Add that to the fact that we can't stop stolen bases this year, that's a big problem that needs a solution. Right now, the solution is the best hitting team Michigan has ever had. It's a pretty good solution; let's hope it keeps working.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:06 PM ^
Let's go Michigan. We need Betsa to settle down, and then comeback
February 28th, 2016 at 4:09 PM ^
Is Betsa hurt or at least not 100%?
February 28th, 2016 at 4:10 PM ^
She comes back with a strikeout after a double to get us out of the inning.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:13 PM ^
need a break. I cannot see the bull pin to see if Sara is warming up.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:17 PM ^
Now wouldn't be the game to do it but I think we should try to get Crockett going. Hutch has already put her in for mop up duty last weekend.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:22 PM ^
tying the ball game. 4-4.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:22 PM ^
MONTE!!! Tied 4-4.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:22 PM ^
Ties it up in the top of the 4th, 4-4. Now THAT'S the way to break out of a slump!
February 28th, 2016 at 4:22 PM ^
MONTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWO RUN SHOT TIES THE GAME AFTER A SAC FLY SCORE!
February 28th, 2016 at 4:23 PM ^
February 28th, 2016 at 4:25 PM ^
almost as bad as George Blah Blah
February 28th, 2016 at 4:24 PM ^
in the T 4th. Now lets see if we can hold them down.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:26 PM ^
with an hour to go. I would hate to see this one called early due to travel regardless of who wins. Two good teams right here.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:29 PM ^
Oh no lol I just remembered that ties can still happen.
We haven't had a tie since the 2001 season.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:26 PM ^
Ha, of course Monty would come up with a huge HR for her first hit of the season. Clearly she was just waiting for the right time.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:27 PM ^
Hey, sometimes you just gotta do things the dramatic way.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:30 PM ^
She's extremely underrated IMO.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:26 PM ^
That home run was her first hit of the year; she had started off 0-for-16.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:32 PM ^
was starting to get frustrated with Monte and started Fatih Canfield a few games. Faith did a wonderful job but Hutch never gives up on her players. Monte comes through.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:33 PM ^
Coach has got to be getting tired of the walks today.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:38 PM ^
Another walk, another stolen base, but this time Michigan gets out of it.
They have 40 minutes to get through the 5th & 6th, if they do that, there will be a 7th. I give it about a 60 percent chance to go the full 7 today.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:36 PM ^
the bottom of the 4th. Still 4-4 with 40 minutes left in the game.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:41 PM ^
Kelsey due up in the top of the 5th. Sounds like 2 runs to me.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:46 PM ^
link??
February 28th, 2016 at 4:51 PM ^
pay site
February 28th, 2016 at 4:49 PM ^
a slap single to lead off the inning. Tera gets her to third, with 2 outs.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:53 PM ^
drives in Abby for a 5-4 lead. Still 2 outs.
February 28th, 2016 at 4:53 PM ^
Kelly Christner with the RBI single!
February 28th, 2016 at 4:55 PM ^
Go Blue!
February 28th, 2016 at 4:56 PM ^
5-4 US.
