...left field line. Fellow freshman and designated hitter Lauren Murphy was then intentionally walked, the fifth of sixth times she would receive that treatment during the two games. Sophomore Bailey Vertovez pinch ran for her, and captain second baseman Julia Kidder was up next and scored Krysiak with a bunt base...
...leadoff triple and two walks, No. 8 hitter Rob Papenhause lofted a game-tying grand slam into the centrifugal winds in right-center.After No. 9 hitter Brad Rifkin grounded a single up the middle, senior Jason Brown tried to staunch the bleeding.

But what's better: watching Jim Thome bat 500 times a year, or rotund pitcher David Wells trying to sacrifice bunt with the San Diego Padres? And really, is the double switch all that exciting? (New York Mets closer Billy Wagner comes into the game - and will hit sixth in the lineup!) "It's a no-brainer," says Shapiro. So put down your gloves, kids.
