Taylor Pananell led to the bottom of the ninth below the top of the wall to the left. After an informed popup for the first out, the UCLA deliberately asked Sophia Nugant and McKenna Gibson to load the bases to load the base before finishing the game on the 2–2 pitch of Toller Tinsley.
UCLA was down to its final in the seventh, before Jordan Wulary kept the game alive with the same left-center.
Megan Grant then jumped on the first pitch of Carlin Pickens, leading to the right-center to tie the game 4-4.
But the drama was not done.
Grant initially recalled the home plate, stepped on it, and on-deck hitter Alexis Ramirez grabbed Grant’s hand amid the festive around the plate until Grant touched the house.
But after a review that lasted for about 15 minutes, the umpires ruled that Grant had recalled the plate and assisted, but the play was not reviewable.
Panel scored 3 -for -4 and three runs with home runs. Pickens (25–10), covering the distance for Tennessee, taking out seven.
Wulary moved to 4 -for -4 with a double for UCLA, while Jessica Clements added two hits.
