I am telling you there is no advantage to us or South Alabama if we or them are the home or away team. What advantage would we have today batting last versus batting first? None.

Always an advantage to bat last in the inning. If it wasn't, then why do teams always bat last when they play at home? If there wasn't an advantage, then every game would start with a coin toss to see who is the home team and who is the visitor.

Give me one advantage to us batting last today?

Not true. Some coaches actually prefer to bat first because they feel that if they score a few runs then it applies pressure immediately.

Then I ask you again, then why does every home team in all of baseball and softball always bat last? There is a definite psychological advantage. Regardless of what "some coaches actually prefer". Some does not make a majority. If it didn't matter, then again, there would be a coin toss, like in football, to see who has the choice of receiving or kicking off, who would bat first or last? But there is not a coin toss in softball or baseball.

Coach Lotief was the only coach I know that preferred to bat first.
