Oklahoma never gave Houston a chance during their three-game college softball series over the weekend. The Sooners swept the Cougars in dominant fashion. It wasn’t even close at any point.
An all-time embarrassing bat flip made the third of three losses even worse.
Graduate transfer Jazmyn Rollin, who spent two years at Missouri and two years at Arizona State before ending up in Texas, is known to play loud. She has a lot of fun on the diamond and never holds back.
When her team is winning, it’s a lot of fun. The same cannot be said for an ugly loss.
Oklahoma beat Houston 8-0 in six innings on Friday and 10-2 in five innings on Saturday. Sunday was just as bad.
Rollin stepped into the box in the top of the seventh (and final) inning. The scoreless Cougars were down by five. There were no outs. There were no runners on.
After working a 3-2 count, she sent a high fly ball down the right field line. Rollin took one very confident step out of the box and flipped her bat in ice cold fashion on her way to first base.
It was not a home run. The wind was blowing pretty hard toward the plate so a measly pop up was caught in front of the warning track for out number one.
The entire sequence was so embarrassing that even ESPN’s college softball broadcast crew roasted her.

Not only did Rollin pimp a fly out, even if it was a home run, Houston would have still been down 5-1 after losing the first two games by a total of 18-2. That’s brutal.
She has bat flipped multiple fly outs during her college softball career.
This is not the first time that this has happened!
Rollin’s bat flipping antics have created similar situations in the past. That’s tough.
