I did hear an announcer say that she is considering herself an underdog. Apparently, she was left of a national team or something.
So she is working with a chip on her shoulder to be better.
The announcer also referenced her in the same vain as the patriots...... at which point I moved off the game. Fact check.....I think the patriots have rings to be considered champions.

Anyone else watch/hear that game??? I think it was the 2/12/2019 Japan vs Florida game

As a Patriots fan, I am waiting on the edge of my seat for the inevitable cheating comparison references ;)

So far she is 6-0 with a 0.88 ERA and 1.68 strike outs per inning. Seems to be pitching well so far... But I have not actually seen her pitch yet. DD's college team is playing in Florida in March and we had hoped to catch a Florida game on DD's day off. But UF is also off that day...

She did not have the skills to be a PO on the national team. Heading toward post season in May is usually Mental Meltdown Month. This season she will not have Ocasio to pick her up after Walton tunes her up. It should be interesting.

She was hit hard by the Japanese national team.
She is definitely down in speed when legal.

He almost threw a couple more away when feilding at the USF tourney.


I think she had a lot of hitters at the USF tournament chasing the rise quite a bit. She was definitely not hitting spots as well in the past.

Refs called LSU pitcher 3 times last weekend in 7th inning against Texas for leaping which I agree she was. So apparently you have to get your drive foot back down and replant for it to be a legal pitch.

Watched her pitch against Japanese National Team. She did fairly well as they were great hitters. Not fooled by riseballs. Velocity seemed down a little but still throwing gas. Think their depth this year at pitching will hurt them in the long run.
