Auburn rallies with a 3 run 7th inning to remain unbeaten with a 4-3 win against UGA!

We're 1 win away from a spot in the National Final.

[Pell City Tiger]

We'll play the winner of the FSU/UGA elimination game.

Strange 7th.  Lucked out on the run on a weird call.  Could have just as easily been 3-3 going to the bottom of the 7th.  However, 1st and 3rd with nobody out at 3-3....they blew the chance to blow that one open. Either way,,,  Semi's bitches.


Literally.

I thought that too but they flipped UGA to the other bracket now to play LSU.  We will play the winner of FSU/Michigan or Oklahoma.

We were in a bar watching with no sound.  What was the explanation?  Carasone ran out of the baseline and was, thus, out?

They never gave a good explanation that I heard.  My thoughts are that when Carasone ran out of the baseline, the 2nd basegirl didn't try to complete the double play.  She instead threw to 2nd base to try and still get Carasone. I think if she would have made the attempt at the tag and then threw to 1st, it would have been ruled a double play.  But her only play was on Carasone. 

Seems logical in my mind.

No. Carasone was out when she ran out of the baseline. For some reason, the runner that hit the ball thought they called a double play, so she headed back to the dugout. When she did that, the first base coach grabbed her and told her to get on first. When a coach touches a payer, she is automatically out. But he did this after the run had already scored, so it was 4-3 before the third out took place.

Yeah. The UGA second baseman blew it. If she would have thrown to first after the runner left the baseline, it would have been a DP. But she threw to second to get a runner that was already out anyway.

It couldn't have happened to a better girl. She was getting on my nerves all night. I told my dad that she could play for the UGA football team the way she was acting like an idiot all night...

Or....it could be this.  ^^^

Ahhh.  Thank you.

It confused me too, but they interviewed Casey Cooper after the game and this is what she said.

I'll bet that scenario happens about once every 5,000 games.  Glad it worked out.

You are correct!

Thank you. It's refreshing when someone who actually knows what they are talking about posts an explanation, esp after some idiot has already posted some kind of moronic drivel and soundless reasoning that they think "seems logical".

FSU bounced Michigan in a pitchers duel.  We split the two game series with the Noles during the regular season, so it should be an interesting game.

[Pell City Tiger]

Auburn leads FSU 6-4 going into the bottom of the 4th.

[Pell City Tiger]

7-4 now top of the 5th!

[Pell City Tiger]

FSU leaves the bases loaded in the top of the 6th and we're still up 7-4.

3 outs away from the National Championship series!

[Pell City Tiger]

Top of the 7th! Here we go!

[Pell City Tiger]

Shit! 3 run homer ties it up at 7.
