LSU catcher Lauren Houston scooted down the third base line to attempt to tag Fenton for the frame’s third out, but she threw the ball past third baseman Tammy Wray’s head on the failed pickoff attempt. That allowed Fenton to cross the plate to make it 2-0. Alabama used a Fenton opening walk, two stolen bases and an- other Hunt RBI ground out to push its lead to 3-0 after three innings. Traina tacked on a three-run homer in the sixth inning. It was one of only two balls to leave the infield versus Mack. Earlier in the frame, the Crimson Tide was the beneficiary of an Ashleigh Kuhn throwing error on a force play at second base. Traina sat down the last 10 batters she faced in the circle to secure the 6-0 win. “Timely hitting was the key, and we’ve been getting that timely hit lately,” Torina said. “Give credit to Traina because she made big pitches when she needed to. We have to make sure that we do a better job tomorrow when the same opportunities present themselves.”

LSU responded right back with a two-out rally during the third inning. Langoni and Juliana Santos worked their way to consecutive walks to set the table for Allison Falcon. On a 2-2 offering, Falcon smoked a RBI single into left centerfield to put the Tigers up 3-1. Alabama answered with a Fenton solo shot to straight-away cen- terfield with two outs in the third inning to make it 3-2. “After allowing the two home runs, I knew I had to bear down,” Fico said. “My teammates were working so hard for me. I needed to make my pitches sharper and start generating some swings-and-misses. Coach Torina talked me threw it and really helped me get my mindset back on-track.” Fico worked her way out of trouble and stranded runners during the fourth, fifth and sixth stanzas. She recorded six of her nine Ks over the final three inning highlighted by striking out the side in the fifth. Alabama’s bid to even the score during the seventh inning came up empty. On a 0-1 pitch, Jackie Traina hit a towering shot that went foul down the left field line. Four pitches later, Fico registered a strikeout of Traina for the second out of the inning. Kaila Braud’s chopping bunt attempt was fielded by third baseman Tammy Wray, who fired a strike to Falcon covering the first base to get the speedy Braud by a step for the final out of the game. “This was a huge win for us,” Fico said. “We did everything that we had to do and played Tiger softball. As soon as I saw the ball hit to Tammy, I knew we were going to get the out. I’m so confident in her ability to play defensively at third base. She has such great, quick hands and possesses one of the best arms on the team so I knew that if she fielded the ball cleanly, she was going to throw Braud out.”

She retired the first 11 batters she faced before issuing a walk to Ashley Langoni. LSU’s lone hit came on an A.J. An- drews infield single during the fifth inning. ANDREWS “I’m sure she felt the pressure to step up with a big performance after we got the win yesterday,” Torina said. “She was very tough to- day and a lot of credit goes to her. My biggest lessen for our players today was their response after we gave up the five runs. I didn’t think we had a very good response. That’s something we can change, it’s a mentality thing.”
