Can the Pac 10 do it again?
 

I have been glued to the tube watching the Softball World Series. I think the officials are much better this year than last. No, I can't remember any one thing I didn't like about last year, but I do remember some of the umpires appeared to be out of place for a D1 championship. BUT NOT this year! The baseball guys are commenting on the robotic calls by the umpires. I don't see it that way, but a uniform way to make a call while remaining an impartial observer. I do like some of the called strike three calls, but for me my call is very much more subdued.

GOOD JOB BLUES!

Can the Pac 10 do it again?


Sure can, but I hope not!


GO SEC!!! (and War Eagles anyway!)

Should be a good finish, and there has been much more interest in fastpitch softball due to the coverage of the WCWS. I'm glad to see that.

I think the umpiring has been as good as most MLB games I have seen lately. I still think the winning run in game two was an out though. Even on the replay I didn't see a plate touch, and even if she got it, thought the tag came first! I also didn't have the position the PU had, and didn't see any arguements from the TN staff.

Good luck to both teams, their play has given us all a boost!

It was a good series. I thought the same thing about the
run in game #2, but as we all know-- things look a lot differently on TV.
It might just be me, but I thought the plate umpire last night was a little
erratic with the strike zone. A few of the TV shots of the AZ pitcher made it seem that she was questioning some pitches.
All in all, a class act from teams, coaches, fans, and umps.
