No. 1/1 Softball’s rally halted in seventh inning
AUSTIN, Texas – In a matter of minutes, everything changed for both Texas and Texas A&M in the top of the first inning of the Aggies' eventual 6-5 win.
One moment, the top-seeded Longhorns were celebrating in front of their third-base dugout believing they had turned an inning-ending triple play. The next, the Aggies were celebrating around home plate as Trinity Cannon sent a 3-2 pitch over the left field fence for a three-run home run. In between was a challenge by Texas A&M head coach Trisha Ford that a ground ball that rolled to Mia Scott at third base to start the action actually hit off Cannon's foot thus making it a foul ball and erasing the momentous moment.
