Two of the eight super-regional match-ups -- LSU vs. Florida State and UCLA vs. Virginia Tech -- open up tonight, with the rest beginning on Friday. I'll be here to follow the action, including the results board (below).
UCLA-Virginia Tech
Top 1: Two-out Kelsey Bennett triple to wall in right-center, just beyond two converging UCLA outfielders, drives in a pair, 2-0 Hokies... K ends the threat... VT adds two more in top of fourth, making it 4-0, still batting with runners on second and third and two out... Nice catch of a blooper in short left-field saves a run for UCLA... Runners at the corners for VT with none out in the top of the fifth... If game gets really out of hand, UCLA may want to remove pitcher Rachel Garcia and conserve her for later in the series... Single makes it 5-0... Here comes the hook... 7-2 Virginia Tech is your final... Hokies lead series, one game to none...
Florida State-LSU
Seminoles get first run of game in top of the sixth on a sacrifice fly... LSU with a leadoff single, trying to tie game in bottom of seventh... Grounder to pitcher (functionally equivalent to a bunt) advances runner to second... Hard liner caught by FSU 3B-person, now two outs... Ground-out to second ends game... Florida State leads series, one game to none...
