After a wild Crimson Classic and (shocker) more upsets across the sport, Tom Canterbury and Gray Robertson are back and ready to talk about all things college softball! Here's your trip around the bases:
At the Plate (0:00-21:43): Tom and Gray recap the good and the bad from the Crimson Classic, discussing hot bats from Skylar Wallace, Maddie Morgan, and KB Sides, good pitching performances, seventh inning struggles, what needs to improve going forward, and what to expect this weekend as Alabama opens up SEC play against Arkansas.
Advancing to First (21:52-40:39): Surprise! There were more upsets in Week Four. The guys parse through the ones that really stuck out and then go through some of the big headlines from the week in the SEC.
Stealing Second (40:46-1:04:57): ESPN Analyst and 7Innings Podcast contributor Michele Smith stops by to talk about parity in softball, the crazy week for Texas, her impressions of Louisiana and Alabama, concerns about UCLA's pitching depth, the problems in the Big Ten, the growth of the sport, and the 2020 Olympics.
Rounding Third (1:05:05-1:20:14): After a month of softball, the guys give out their "February Feels." Do Tom and Gray feel good vibes or bad vibes about certain teams like Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, and UCF?
Heading Home (1:20:22-1:47:06): To close the show, Gray and Tom make their first SEC series picks of the season. Then, it's an EPIC and INCREDIBLE "Off the Wall" segment that calls out ridiculous comments about Facebook videos, locker rooms, complacency, and much more. You won't want to miss this one.
