Sun Belt Conference softball tournament

Yep, the only baserunning situation that stood out to me was getting thrown out at second with 2 out and taking the bat out of Heaths hands late in the game. Not sure what happened there, missed/confused signal or what.

Simply trying to get a runner in scoring position with two out so a base hit gets another run. Not hard to understand at all.

Both of our diamond coaches do it every single game, and justifiably so . . . Should be used to it by now. When it happens, a fan should say, well we are trying to manufacture a run with one hit. In a sport when .333 is a good number, what are the chances of getting two hits in a row . . . Minimal at best.

But she didn’t steal on the pitch, she hesitated. And I’d have to check, but I don’t think the runner is a true base stealing threat. And I do understand softball strategy.

Missed signal. Probably first base coach error. Nothing to do with trying to get a runner in scoring position.

I’ll admit, after checking stats, the pinch runner is a legit base stealing threat. But there was some hesitation, so something got her confused. I still would not have run in that situation and let Heath have a chance to hit a 2 run homer.

That runner is 4-5 on steals this season. I believe the error wasn't on the runner from what I saw.

Agreed that it was probably a missed sign. But I don't think Lacy makes those calls. Signs come from third base.

Absolutely missed.
