We're about to get underway here at McWhorter Stadium, as the Tigers wrap up their regular season home slate this weekend against NC State. Tigers have won 13 straight and 30 of last 32! Valerie Cagle will be in the circle for game one. The National Player of the Year candidate's 0.85 ERA leads the ACC and is 5th in the Power Five. Game one begins at 5:00, and they will play a doubleheader tonight. |

Cagle struck out the leadoff batter, but State has bases loaded after a couple singles and an error at 2nd. One of the singles was a weak squib like a swinging bunt. Should have had a double play on the last one to end the inning. Instead, it's bases loaded with one out.

Good grief, another error by Pereira keeps the inning alive. Her 2nd error on a routine play. The last one loaded the bases with one out on a double play ball. 2 on with 2 outs.

She homered for the 2nd straight game, giving her 11 to lead the team. It was her 6th game hitting a HR while pitching. Freshman McKenzie Clark also homered for the 2nd straight game, and Guimbarda hit her 10th. Game 2 will begin in about 30 minutes. |

There are only 20 Power Five players with more HR's than Cagle, and she is 5th in the Power Five in ERA! That's why she's National Player of the Year right now in my book. There isn't a two-way player even close.

I just got through with post-game baseball interviews. It's tied 3-3 now in the 6th. Thompson gave up a leadoff HR and a walk to start the 4th, and then she gave up a one-out single and a 2-out double to tie the game. TIED 3-3 AFTER 5.
