I sound like Ocalaman aka Weatherman but game might be delayed. Severe thunderstorm warning in Lexington until 1PM then 20% throughout the day.
New Game Time: Kentucky Softball vs. Florida Due to inclement weather, the Kentucky Softball game vs. Florida originally scheduled for 2:00PM today, May 7, has been pushed to a 3:00PM start time ============= For what its worth -- rain at the stadium stopped about 10 minutes ago and there is a 15% chance of rain every hour until 7PM when it goes back up. Not sure they made the right decision by giving up an hour.

Agreed. but not too many options inside the circle. if you are talking about the pitching stand point.
It's funny that our announcers keep saying that 2nd base isn't Reagan Walsh's normal position. She came in as a shortstop and last year started the season there. But she made too many errors early, Walton took her from there and mainly had her DH. So she couldn't make it at her "natural" position, what makes him think she will be better at 2nd, which in D1 softball is almost as difficult as SS? Walsh needs to be in the lineup for her bat, but she's not a D1 middle infielder.
Next year I really hope Mia grabs SS, move Wallace to 2B and Walsh to 1B or DH. Truth be told Wallace isn't a pure SS either
