James Madison pulls off historic upset of Oklahoma State | Full finish

[@derkardinal9781]

That play by Alexander, tagging the runner out at home on the squeeze bunt, was even more tremendous because it was done under such pressure & with the stakes so high.

[@whatsupdoc9833]

I think in that play the girl on third hesitated, if not would have been a lot closer play.

[@derkardinal9781]

@@whatsupdoc9833 Looked at the video again, and you are right. But Alexander had no control over that; she made the most of the opportunity, and it was a gutsy, all out effort.

[@hankshepherd2310]

idk how many people saw this, but they played Mizzou in the super regionals. One of the craziest games I've ever seen, they nearly choked, but came back and look at them now

[@deplorablelibertarian]

And before they went in and toppled Mizzou, they had gone into Tennessee and took them down. First game at Mizzou was handled nicely, second game they got embarrassed, and slightly struggled with the last game but pulled it off. They made absolute history by taking down the number 1 team in the land, they made it again with this win here. I think they were hugely underestimated because they have a weak regular season and we’re unranked.

[@alishasantiago219]

Dang I honestly didn’t except them to make this far 💪🏼 they goated♥️

[@jaymarshall9093]

That tag‼ She did that❣🔥

[@fitfogey]

So let me get this straight. In the 7th inning, Oklahoma State had a runner leave early on a pitch to steal second, got a BS obstruction called and ended up with runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs, and still lost. Nice try Cowgirls.

[@andrewmcnicoll4268]

Not to mention the batter should've been called for interference on the steal for entering the catcher's throwing lane (would've resulted in the baserunner being out).

[@fitfogey]

Didn’t even notice that but you’re right.

[@sydneyrenee7088]

The runner didn’t leave early, the call was that the batter didn’t pull back on a bunt attempt. Nonetheless, super impressive performance by JMU!!!

[@deplorablelibertarian]

Yeah, I like that people are calling that obstruction call bull crap...because it was. It wasn’t obstruction, it was incidental contact. They only won this game because of their pitcher; everyone needs to realize this.

[@alcoraces]

@@deplorablelibertarian Incidental contact during a rundown is the definition of Obstruction. The call was correct, the fielder simply made a mistake. No lead off either, but there should have been interference on the batter on the steal attempt. Regardless, the team that should have won did win so all good in the end.

Pinch baserunning did not have a good inning. Got out twice. Rundown should not have happened, and WHY did she wait to go on the bunt? She hesitated, and it cost her.

[@KColonelSanders405]

Odicci arm is made if steal,...I lost count of how many pitches she threw against OU the first time they played

[@dogpatch75]

Alexander's awesome tag-out was set up by the rundown that was VERY poorly executed. Five throws should NEVER occur in a rundown. Alexander's initial throw and the throws by the players covering 3B were all made too early, which prevented forcing the runner back to 2B. The players covering 2B all made their throws too late, which kept the runner too close to 3B. These mistakes all helped set up the obstruction, which DID occur when #4 Jubas made contact with the runner while exiting to the wrong side after making the fifth throw. Of course, hindsight is 20-20, but coaches have to have it and take it back to the practice field to make their teams better.

[@JackycClark]

Rundown executed almost flawlessly .

[@matthewgray8334]

It was a lot of throws but i don’t think they could’ve realistically gotten the tag before they did. They problem was that the girl who had obstruction called on her veered off to the left instead of the right. She was right handed so her natural throwing lane in that instance was on the right and it’s much quicker to go that way.

[@JackycClark]

@@matthewgray8334 It was a lot of throws . The runner did a good job to force that many & it's hard to maintain your discipline of being in the right spot , it's a rotation that takes practice . Thought they did well .
