Tracking the Softball Career of UL's Christi Orgeron

[basinbear]

Game over...U.S. 8 zip over Peurto Rico. Christie looked great.

[CajunEXPRESS]

They complimented the Lotief's, talked about the absolute party and great place to play at, unfortunately, U double L. Loved her, the fans, and the program.

I have to say I have a pet peeve with sports announcers who don't do their homework.

Last week when the USA team played Canada, the ESPN announcers said that it was Christi's first time playing for the national team. This is actually her second summer playing for the national team.

Last night watching the TV3 sports, they had Christi going 2-3 with 3 RBI's last night against Puerto Rico instead of 2-2 with 2 RBI's and a sacrifice.

A little prep work please.

In my defense , I was just going off what the official box score credited her with. I watched the game and only saw 2 RBIs as well. But hey if they are going to credit her with 3, I'll give her 3.

Not a problem, it happens. I was watching the game so was aware of the box score before it was posted anywhere. I'm more concerned with the duo who does the TV broadcasts as they typically have time to do prep work prior to doing the game. I laughed at a game earlier where they were saying one of the US team had 3 grand slams this year, but didn't mention Christi who had 6 this year. I will have to say that they spoke much better about the university and coaches Lotief last night than in prior times I've heard them cover the National team games.

Also cudo's to the US team coach, who's actually playing Christi in the field this year. Last summer, she was only a DH or a pinch hitter.

[CajunRed]

Christi started against Brazil...going on right now.

[CajunRed]

Two trips to the plate so far today...and she doesn't have a hit. Did get to base off of a walk first time up.

[CajunRed]

She probably hurt her chances of playing in tomorrow's finals...after going hitless today against weak Brasil pitching.

[NewsCopy]

Christi Orgeron and the USA Softball Women’s National Team run ruled Brazil in five innings on Sunday, 9-0, to finish pool play 5-0 and lock up their No. 1 seed in the finals Monday night the Amateur Softball Association (ASA) of America and USA Softball announced today.
