Boise State has essentially given up in game two against New Mexico State. After tying the game at 3, New Mexico State exploded for 7 runs in the third, leading to the departure of starter Allie Crump. Reliever Lela Work too has been bounced from the game and the rout is on. Boise State has lost 16-3.
Boise State struck first to grab its first lead of the series against New Mexico State in Las Cruces.
Christina Capobianco ignited the rally with a single. Vanessa Alvarez walked, Kelly Sweeney reached on an error by the Aggie shortstop and Tazz Weatherly was hit by a pitch to force in Capobianco. Another error allowed Alvarez to score and that is where we stand--Boise State 2, New Mexico State coming to bat in the second.
The Aggies continue to be aggressive, getting runners at second and third with No-body out. New Mexico State went on to score three in the inning. Boise State tied it up again 3-3 only to see the home team score seven runs in the bottom of the third. A three-run homer has made it 10-3.
New Mexico State is definitely for real. They can't field worth a darn (8 errors in less than two games) but they sure can hit. Since the Bronco pitchers cannot hold them, it's incumbent upon the Boise State hitters to get double-digit runs in every game against them.
