Auburn began their incredible comeback in the bottom of the 2nd inning. Oklahoma decided to go with a right handed pitcher, Kelsey Stevens instead of their ace, Paige Parker who had pitched every game in the post season.
Auburn began their incredible comeback in the bottom of the 2nd inning when Whitney Jordan hit a 3 run home run and Victoria Draper singled in a run. Auburn tied the game in the 4th inning after a two run blast.
In the top of the 6th inning, Shay Knighten of Oklahoma hit a deep ball to left field and Tiffany Howard reached beyond the fence and came up with the catch to save 2 runs.
Makayla Martin came in to relieve Rachel Walters in the 7th inning and allowed just 1 hit for the remainder of the game.
Now for the big inning. Emily Carosone comes up to bat with the bases loaded and hit a grand slam home run on a pitch that was a in her zone over the plate.
Auburn now has one more game to play to take the Women's World Series crown. I do expect Oklahome to start their ace, Paige Parker and Auburn will continue to use their pitching depth. I feel that it will be an exciting night for this Auburn Sotball team.
Good luck ladies! I hope to see you all rolling the tree at Jane B. Moore field when you do return.
