Tide player homers, gets called out for not tagging home. Alabama freshman Bailey Hemphill hits a home run against Ole Miss and accidentally doesn’t tag home plate while celebrating with her teammates, then gets tagged out.

So, first and foremost, shout out to reader KG in Nashville for passing this story along to me. You guys have no idea how much it warms my heart to hear our voice catching on to the point where I have readers messaging me with, “this seems like something right up the SoBros Network’s alley.” It means the vision is coming to fruition – so keep ’em coming, guys. Love it.

Now, let’s break down the film here.

Obviously, I’m no softball expert, but I’m going to go out on a limb here and say this is not an ideal play for the Alabama Crimson Tide. This is like in football when a wide receiver breaks free down the sideline and tosses the ball down before they’ve crossed the plane into the end zone. Just inexcusable.

Man, I hate to think about what would happen to this woman if Nick Saban was coaching the softball team. You guys laugh, but they’re paying the man enough money that they’re going to start having him do odd jobs. Polish off trophies, empty the trash cans in the cafeteria, serve as RA (residential assistant, I think? Do colleges still have those on each floor of the dorms?), pass out parking tickets, and coach the softball team. Gotta get their money’s worth.

Or, hell – judging by the way people veritably worship Saban, they may just honestly believe he could coach the softball team. Don’t be surprised.

Anyway, the real star of this video is this lady GOING HARD trying to get this woman to tag up:

Seriously, go back and watch the video again. Watch her chase this broad down like Gandalf, going all “YOU SHALL NOT PASS” on her:

You da real MVP, lady.
