Reports are that the injury bug has hit FSU hard

It's being reported that starting FSU catcher Michaela Edenfield suffered a broken finger this weekend in a freak accident and is having to have season ending surgery. She was having an awesome year - hitting .398 with a team leading 11 home runs. She was a 2022 finalist for the National Freshman of the Year and was the preseason All-ACC catcher. She was replaced in Sunday's game by Sophomore Maddie Frey who has had 9 at bats this year. That's a huge drop off. There is also a post that Senior pitcher Allison Royalty has a shoulder injury. She is second on the team in starts (9) and ERA (3.96), but hasn't pitched since 3/24. As much as I want to outperform FSU, I hate to do it because of injuries.

"freak accident" was actually a "moment of frustration"

I thought I saw her do that in rewatching the game

Yeah that stinks. One team I know lost the nation’s HR & GSlam leader

Yep, we can certainly feel their pain.**

That happened to another team? What are the chances? :-)**

Not surprised about Royalty. There's a reason most elite P's are 5'10" . .

Angela Tincher is a notable exception. I always marveled at her power and

AT was a true biomechanical marvel. #3 all-time K's. The two P's . . .

Another generational pitcher.

AT's world series team was not very good. The team . . .

Those VT teams couldn't spell offense.

I never realized that but it totally makes sense**

Nothing says we would outperform them BECAUSE of their injuries.

+1 for that last sentence.**
