Here's your trip around the bases: At the Plate (0:00-24:56): Tom and Gray start by talking about Alabama’s series sweep of Ole Miss, including Kayla Beaver’s impressive performances, Bailey Dowling’s hot streak, Kendal Clark’s explosion, and a few nitpicks ahead of a monster series with Texas A&M.

Advancing to First (25:04-55:35): In audio from the Softball America podcast “It Just Means More Softball,” Tom and Gray discuss the biggest stories in the SEC including a battle between Tennessee and Georgia, the intensity of Florida-LSU, Arkansas fighting past Missouri, chaos in College Station, and plenty more. Stealing Second (55:46-1:30:59): ESPN softball analyst Amanda Scarborough returns to the show to dissect the madness from Texas beating Oklahoma, who’s number one, the recent review debates, the most impressive thing Tennessee did against Georgia, Karlyn Pickens, and more. Plus, Amanda joins the guys for an Eclipse themed game called “The Totality Meter.” Rounding Third (1:31:06-1:59:24): Grab your tuxes! The Midseason Boxies return with awards for the SEC, ACL, and across the country.
