Title: Wilson/DeMarini Classic (Softball)
Post by: Pell City Tiger on March 04, 2016, 09:46:09 PM
Auburn digs themselves out of a 7-0 hole to notch an 8-7 comeback win against Indiana.

Casey Cooper went yard in the 3rd and now owns the school record for career homers (43).

They are now 16-1 and will face Murray State at noon tomorrow. They follow that one up with Bryant at 3:30.

The next batter draws a walk to load them up. BOOM! Grand slam by Jade Rhodes! It is her second HR of the game, and makes it 10-0 for the Tigers!

Bryant's pitcher hits the next batter. We have a runner on 1st with nobody out in the 6th. Bryant goes to the pen for a reliever.

This pitcher gave up 6 runs on 1 hit. She could play for our baseball team.

2 quick outs and another hit batter for the new Bryant pitcher. Tigers at 1st & 2nd.
