TEMPE, Ariz. – It was aces wild on Friday night. Oklahoma State senior right-hander Ruby Meylan and Arizona State senior right-hander Kenzie Brown both cruised through the opposing hitters.
Both pitchers went the advertised distance of seven innings, but the game was not over as the score was tied at two. The two pitchers combined threw 258 pitches in the scheduled seven innings.
Arizona State head coach Megan Bartlett went to her bullpen to bring in junior right-hander Meika Lauppe in the eighth. Bartlett’s decision proved to be correct as Lauppe put up a zero on the board, giving the bats a chance to win.
