I would not have brought out Phippen for the 7th (I know hindsight is 20-20) but she was leave them over the plate in the 6th. And Megan has pitched well all year. But now we need to regroup for the game later tonight. I agree.

Joe starting out with Megan Beiermeister, interesting gambit. Monmouth deploying what I would call optimal strategy, going for the kill with Irons, if she gives up a run or two I bet Salsburg pulls her immediately for later.
0-0 in the 2nd.

The long ball is killing us that was Higa's first home run of 2019. Reminiscent of Nomar's "kids who never hit threes hit all the threes against Marist" bit.

Foxes in deep trouble. Not only are they giving up dingers, they aren't generating any offense.

I can’t pretend to understand softball strategy but why pitch your starters in back to back games vs alternating.
Seemed like a stupid strategy seeing how both pitchers got clobbered in their 2nd game in less then 24 hrs

The announcers are not quite up to speed. The batter was out, even though the third strike hit the dirt because first base was occupied with less than 2 outs. Doesn't matter that the runner broke for 2nd when the ball hit the dirt, she still was considered as occupying 1st. Batter cannot advance to 1st.

Well barring a miracle in the bottom of the 7th, it's not gonna happen for the Red Foxes. Congrats on an excellent season and it's been so great seeing this board take an interest in softball, one of my favorite off the beaten path sports.

I attended most of the games, we are a class team with classy players. They work hard and enjoy the sport. I am proud to have another class team ranked high in the MAAC

Shannon Baker, SO pitcher from Mahopac NY (about an hour south of poughkeepsie) pitches a perfect game with 21 Ks. Got lucky with Phippen, could we look into another local star?

Opening Weekend 2020
Marist goes 3-1, splitting a DH with Green Bay and beating both Northern Kentucky and host Belmont today. The only loss was 1-0 on an unearned run.
Competition gets much tougher next weekend at SEC's Arkansas, field includes perennial Patriot League power Boston U.
