#9 Mizzou Softball opens season @ #2 Alabama

Senbro_medium

The preseason #9 Missouri Tigers travel to Tuscaloosa to open their season against the #2 Alabama Crimson Tide this weekend.  Game times are at 1:00 and 3:30 Saturday and 12:00 on Sunday at the Alabama Softball Stadium.  There doesn't appear to be any TV or radio for any of these games from the Mizzou end, but there are CBS All-Access links here. 

UPDATE: Mizzou takes Game 1, 2-1 and drops Game 2 9-0. Use this as an update thread.

UPDATE #2: We're bumping this back to the top of the page for today's noon rubber match.

Meanwhile...

 

Assistant Coach Pete D'Amour tweeted that their flight was canceled from Lambert Field and they were driving to Alabama. More to follow....

UPDATE: As of around 10pm CST last night, he said they'd arrived in Tuscaloosa and there wasn't much snow on the ground.  Should be in the upper 40's for today's games.

Also, because I need 75 words, I'll write a haiku:

 

Hey Alabama!

Watch out for Chelsea Thomas,

She throws really hard

Alabama starts out with a vengence…2-0 bottom 1.

There is a God and I'm not it, after that EVERYTHING is subjective. Be careful for what you wish for, you just might GET IT!

ouch

6-0 after the 1st and that’s where it’s still at in the bottom of the 3rd

by CPC on Feb 13, 2010 4:12 PM CST reply actions  

6-0 after 3 full innings

Here’s Mizzou’s pitching lines:
Nottelmann- 1.2IP, 6H, 6R, 6ER, 2BB, 1K (13 Batters, 3HR, 12B)
Hainey- 1.1IP, 1H, 0R, 0ER, 1BB, 1K (6 Batters)

I would guess so

I hope this was just a fluke on Nottelmann’s part….you really have to have a quality 2nd pitcher in college softball to be successful.

....and that's the end of the game

Run Ruled after 5 innings, Bama wins the 2nd game 9-0…

What a HUGE statement.

Now, PLEASE let that performance by Nottleman yesterday be a fluke. If this team has an option in the circle behind Chelsea Thomas, we’re talking serious contention here.

That's a final

9-0 Missouri
1st time Alabama has ever been run ruled at the Alabama Softball Complex
1st time run-ruled in Tuscaloosa since 1997
1st time run-ruled against a non-conference opponent since 2002.

Thomas finished with 12 K’s, 2 H, 1 BB.
Christopher goes 2-3 with 4 RBI
