Sam wrote that Addi had an inside the park HR, not added to season stats.
Officially, a triple and overthrow to 3rd (error?). I gave credit on Poppin It because I can and it boosts my check amount with a fun reward for hustle. Addi said she wasn't sent by Mike but created her own "carpe diem."

As much as people were complaining about the announcers, she called out the
fielder on the play saying that she was just trying to show off her arm strength and air mailed it. ** Edited by VTBAMA at 5/8/2026, 12:19:43 PM

That was not the intent of the fielder. It is silly to say that the fielder
intent was to show off the arm strength. Her intent was to try to get the runner at 3rd.

If she had the arm strength, go for the runner. Calling it bragging...
...was disingenuous. The analyst was rather pompous at times.

announcer was very annoying particularly early on as she was very
biased to UVA. According to her Emma was only doing well because of wild swings throughout the at bats. What I saw was Emma pounding the outside of the plate and getting ahead of batters with both speed and off speed to get 2 quick strikes and then forcing UVA batters to be very undisciplined and swinging outside the zone. Speed will do that and Emma deserved that credit and not some excuse of blaming the ump and batters for the strikeouts. Ump did have some questionable calls throughout the night but he was consistently bad for both sides. Credit Emma for being aggressive and ruthless attacking the corner or the plate. That was fun to watch. Announcer got better later in the game as she realized it was more Emma than UVA. I like Bigham but UVA jumped ship to quick last night as their freshman keep us off balance. While we more discipline is balls and strikes, we popped out and hit weak grounders alot more than usual last night.

It was the so-called "little league home run" because of the error
Definitely not an inside the park home run. But glad you're counting it anyway for the extra $$. :)

Actually "LLHR" is a single and 3 errors. Just sayin'. Having coached I
don't know how many LL games. ** Edited by King of Hokies at 5/8/2026, 12:20:55 PM
