The crew took nearly 10 minutes discussing a situation that apparently stemmed from the LSU head coach being ejected for what the talking heads were saying was two visits to the "mound" (gotta love former Olympic softball players and Beth Mowins) in one inning.
I don't know what the NCAA rule book says about it but I wouldn't think that two conferences in one inning would warrant an ejection. If that was indeed the reason then maybe that was why the LSU assistant coach got the crew to look at the book. Even so I can't believe that the crew actually accepted a rule book from a coach.
Anyone else see this?

Didn't see it, but a second defensive conference IS an ejection....... unless a pitching change is announced BEFORE the conference.
It has been suggested that if you see a coach heading out, you ask if she is making a pitching change.....
