Play-by-play action for the Mississippi State Bulldogs vs. Oregon Ducks College Softball game from May 16, 2026 on ESPN.

And Ole Miss went to the 7th leading 53 and 6 Texas Tech 8-0. They give up 8 runs including a tying grand slam and it's in extras now. Ole Miss leading 9-8.

And Texas Tech walks it off, 10-9

There was some crazy stat like 640 teams have had an 8+ run lead in the tournament since 2000 and none of them have ever lost.

TT won

She Mate Me · Saturday at 5:27 PM

Headed to the 6th leading 4-0. Faircloth is mowing down Ducks like they're...Ducks.

First time for everything.

Speaking of firsts, Mississippi State has never been 2-0 in a regional. The year we made a Super, we came through the losers bracket and beat Florida State twice on the last day.

Here we are with a 4-0 lead tossing a no hitter in the sixth.

I’m trying something new. Let’s see if it works.

to the seventh. One over the minimum or she would have a perfect game.

Mississippi coach left starter in the entire 7th inning as well. Gave up the grand slam on a 152 pitch count

skydawg1 · Saturday at 5:56 PM

2 outs....

skydawg1 · Saturday at 5:57 PM

Got it! Dawgs win! No hitter! 615 for Prez!

Duggar Hall Desk · Saturday at 5:58 PM

No hitter! Faircloth walked a batter in the first and then no baserunners afterward.

The walk was a bad call. Should have been a perfect game but a no hitter on the road in a 1-0 game at a regional is something else.

She Mate Me · Saturday at 5:59 PM

She did it!!

No hitter!!

If the online pitch location chart is accurate she threw a ton of strikes and a ton more strikes that were called balls.

As I said in the thread this morning. We are a bad matchup for Oregon. They have feasted on weak pitching all year and we have strong pitching. If we can score some runs, you put a lot of pressure on a team that is ranked better than they are.

St. Mary’s may beat them in the elimination game but I like our chances in this regional. Hate that we are matched up with Oklahoma in Super because that is a tall task.

You hate to see it.

TimberBeast · Saturday at 6:35 PM

Faircloth was ridiculous, that was very impressive and fun to watch. I said at the beginning of the season if you’re not watching you’re missing out.

patdog · Saturday at 6:36 PM

Wow! Thats awesome! No hitter in a winners bracket game in the road.

She Mate Me · Saturday at 6:40 PM

They may be overrated, but going in and no hitting the #14 national seed on their home field is pretty amazing. She's gotta be over the moon.

Hugh's Burner Phone · Saturday at 6:42 PM

Can she show our baseball team what a strike zone is and how things typically go better for you when your pitches are inside said zone?

Fact

Didn't realize they scored all 8 runs after two were out.

I wasn’t discounting it. Just stating that we got a great regional draw except for the cross country travel. The 3 seed might be better than the 1 seed and we are the best team there.

Baddog11 · Saturday at 7:43 PM

faircloth, what a pitching performance. Nice to hear the band loud and clear.

Didn't mean to direct that at you. I was just accepting that they're probably overrated like you said.

and as someone above predicted Oregon - did fall to St Mary's

Yep. Oregon was extremely overrated. St. Mary’s is a tougher matchup for us but they have to beat us twice so we should be okay.

For the softball followers here, we've typically had solid hitting and power and less so starting pitching. That seems completely reversed now. Two really good starters, but pretty anemic at the plate with multiple hitters at or below .200 BA's.

Has her philosophy changed that much or is it just a down season hitting wise and she'll be looking for portal power??

TimberBeast · Sunday at 11:33 AM

I’ll be honest I’m worried about tonight. I’m sure Goold will start the first game but we’re going to get everything they have.

Softball is about pitching. We’ve had some really good hitters come through Starkville and haven’t been able to break through.

I understand pitching is of primary importance, but you can't be a weak hitting team and expect to make a CWS. I was asking where the hitting went, because this is the worst hitting team I've seen her have in her time here.

She Mate Me · Sunday at 2:44 PM

Was kind of shocked to see that the girl batting 2nd, who hit the 2 run HR in the 1st, came into the game batting .174 with 4 hits all season and no career HRs.

Great coaching move and great job by her. Just surprised she's batting 2nd in an NCAA tourney game.

And 2 strikes in the batter. Amazing comeback. Can one of the resident softball followers tell me why UM didn’t pull the pitcher?

Oregon looked overweight and out of shape.

They had been eating bad pitching and something other than Broccoli
