Auburn dropped game one of the Super Regional to Oklahoma 4-0 on Friday. Makayla Martin pitched well enough to win but she couldn’t get the run support from the offense. The Tigers had their chances but left runners stranded. You have to give credit to Sooner ace Paige Parker for some of that. She is one of the best pitchers in college softball.
Auburn now faces a must win game Saturday at noon CT on ESPN. Win that one and they set up a winner-take-all game for Sunday. Lose Saturday and well … we won’t go there.
The good news in that this is not the first time Auburn has found them selves in this situation.
