Stanford was getting the bat on the ball all through the game.  The starting Alabama pitcher did not look all that good or maybe Stanford coaching did a great job of scouting her.

Good win for the Cardinal.

I agree Palo Alto, Fouts looked off the whole start (and hope she is ok, after she got hit in the head from a throw down to second by her own catcher
on a Stanford steal attempt, which ended her outing).

However, Fouts is one of the best pitchers in the country; she was a First Team All American last year, with a perfect game against UCLA in the WCWS.

But similarly, the focus and preparation on Stanford's part really showed today.
