Bama Softball

Should have been a call third strike. No gray area. It was A STRIKE. Umpire causes a walk with 2 outs and the next batter hits a double, knocking in 2 runs. I'm so fed up with the fricking umps in these games. Absolutely pitiful.

Going to the bottom of the 7th, Bama down 2-1. This is just ridiculous.

Steady big boy.  It's the rain and lack of good golfballing.
We got this.

Nope. I've watched enough of these to know that the umps this year truly suck. We will definitely get a regional at home and if successful, get a super-regional at home. I just hate watching us get beat because of rotten calls.

Bama Softball just cannot beat Florida in the postseason.

Bama Softball just cannot beat Florida (plus the umps) in the postseason. 

Agreed.

The ump was terrible but he was bad for both teams. We got beat because we only scored 1 run and only got 2 hits. We left too many runners on base. We did not play well offensively in this tournament but our pitching got us to the finals with a chance to win it all. Our bats need to show back up for us to make it to the CWWS.

Rule about a runner getting hit by a ball being out.

The ball is dead. The batter-runner is awarded first base (unless she is the one touched by the batted ball), and other runners advance only if forced. ... The runner is not out, however, if she is touched by a batted ball after it passes through or by an infielder (except the pitcher).

Coach Murphy thought the ball passed by UF first baseman before it hit the runner. It was not a reviewable play. The umps blew that call at a critical time.

I did not know the bold part of that rule.  It is a good addition since you expect that fielder to make a play and stop the ball, and even if they don't they at least had the opportunity to do so without any interference.

Will we be in the super regional? RTR!

We have to play and win the Regional first.

Even the announcers knew the ump blew that call. This may have been the worst year I've ever seen with the terrible officiating.

I refuse to accept that Bama lost the SEC tourney championship game and I strongly suggest that the CRS moderators remove any and all posts that reference said alleged loss.

First I've heard it too.  Is this a Softball Specific Rule?

Wow! Bama got screwed with an 8 seed. Florida got a 5 seed. We swept them at their place and got screwed out of beating them last night. Minnesota got a 7 seed. We beat them twice head to head. Arizona is ahead of us. We beat them 6-1. GEEZ!!!

Don't get me wrong, if we win, we get a super regional at home, but this seeding is total BS!
