A big challenge awaits Aubray Zell in the fourth. Boise State couldn't do anything with their three hot hitters. For Zell to maintain the lead, she'll have to make sure that SD State's big bats don't do anything either.
Lorena Klopp will lead it off for the Aztecs. The 51st pitch from Zell is low in the dirt. Klopp sends a shot to the wall in the center field, Tara Glover backed up, backed up, all the way right in front of the fence to make the catch. A sigh of relief from Bronco Coach Erin Thorpe.
Zell hits Maeva with the first pitch for a gimme runner at first. Lavery will pinch run for her with the dangerous Patrice Jackson up.
Zell needs to start throwing strikes. And indeed she leads off Jackson with one right down the middle. But another ball. Lavery on first with one out in a 1-0 game. Base hit into left field and now the Aztecs have runners on first and second with just one out.
Kristin May is now up and San Diego State is showing Boise State they should have scored in the top half of the inning. May laces a shot to send in Lavery and the score is tied.
Ashley Rose is now up with Jackson on second and May on first. Castanava will now pinch run for May. Zell is struggling. A hit batsman and two singles have plated a run in the fourth for the Aztecs. Zell found the zone on the inside corner for an 0-1 count. Another low and away evens the count. An attempted bunt by Rose and a strike so it is 1-2. And Zell strikes out Rose!
Reifschneider will step up for the Aztecs with two on and two out. Just like the second, a grounder to Crump, who makes the play unassisted.
But the tying run scores against Zell, two hits, and two left on.
After four complete in San Diego, we are knotted up at 1.
