Unseeded Missouri has become the first team
eliminated from the Women's College World Series.
Kristyn Sandberg hit a two-run home run and Kristin Schnake
added a two-run double as Georgia advanced in the
double-elimination tournament with a 5-2 win Saturday against the Tigers.
Sandberg gave the sixth-seeded Bulldogs (45-11) a 3-0 lead in
the fourth inning when she hit her eighth home run of the season with a line drive to center field.
Schnake made it 5-0 an inning
later as Georgia cashed in after Chelsea Thomas (16-7) issued a
walk, hit a batter and threw a wild pitch.
Georgia starter Christie Hamilton (25-9) gave up only a two-run
single to Marla Schweisberger after a disputed call kept a rally
going in the sixth inning for the Tigers (50-12).
