Washington Shuts Out Cal In Series Opener
April 28, 2017 | Softball
BERKELEY, Calif. โ No. 8 Washington captured a 4-0 win at California in the series opener at Levine-Fricke Stadium Friday evening.
Taylor Van Zee went 2-for-4 on the day and collected three RBIs. Morganne Flores was 3-for-4 and drove in the other UW run.
Taran Alvelo (22-6) pitched a complete game for Washington. She gave up only four hits and issued zero walks.
For the fourth game in a row, Washington got on the board in the first inning. Sis Bates singled, followed by a walk to Casey Stangel. Flores singled to load the bases and Van Zee brought in the first run on aย RBI single.
An explosive Husky offense in the fifth inning tacked on three more runs, beginning with a walk issued to Ali Aguilar. Stangel was issued a walk after Cal starter Zoe Conley called a timeout after an out, a rule that has been implemented this season by the Pac-12 Conference. Flores doubled to bring in Aguilar. Van Zee pounded her third hit of the day and brought home pinch runners Alyssa Simons and Kajia Gibson to extend Washington's lead to 4-0.
The teams will continue their three-game series tomorrow, April 29 at 12 p.m. PT at Levine-Fricke Stadium. The game will be covered by the Pac-12 Network with Krista Blunk and Barb Jordan on the air.
