Day 1 of OKC I got an ankle brace to match my shoulder brace after finding the only hole there ☹️. The past weeks have been rough but finishing 7th in PGF & OKC was awesome! We fell short today but we had a great time! @LegacyLegendsS1 @ExtraInningSB @Los_Stuff @IHartFastpitch pic.twitter.com/ptjWghj39o
