An aggressive baserunning decision in the Women's College World Series opener Thursday cost Alabama a go-ahead run in a loss to UCLA. In a pivotal moment during the top of the fifth inning, with two outs and the bases loaded for the Crimson Tide, Kenleigh Cahalan delivered a powerful hit to right-center field, scoring the game-tying run from third to make it a 1-1 score. But a bold baserunning move by Kali Heivilin resulted in an out at home, leaving two runners stranded. Alabama head coach Patrick Murphy defended the decision to send Heivilin home in an attempt to get the go-ahead run.

Georgia Democrats are sounding the alarm over potential mass voter challenges ahead of the November election. Georgia law allows local voters to challenge the eligibility of as many people as they want if they suspect the person is ineligible to cast a ballot. Ahead of the Jan. 2021 runoffs for the U.S. Senate, a conservative vote monitoring group called True the Vote challenged hundreds of thousands of voters’ eligibility.
