When Will Washington Huskies WCWS Bats Come Back To Life?

The Washington Huskies Women’s Softball Team Advanced twice on great pitching and efficient hitting. Ultimately, the Huskies bats must come back to life. But when?

The Washington Huskies Women’s Softball Team defeated the Oregon Ducks, 3-1, and enter tonight’s game against the home field advantage Oklahoma Sooners at 6:30 p.m. PT. The Washington Huskies have been getting great pitching, solid defense, and squeezed every run possible out of their hits in the past two games.

But there is a problem.  The bats are silent.

It began with a 2-1 nail-biter win over Utah to advance to the Women’s Championship World Series.

Few Hits Just Enough Runs

The win came from getting two runs on just three hits: one from Ali Aguilar and two from Kirstyn Thomas.

The WCWS opener found the Huskies squeaking by once more, , this time on a four hit three run performance to defeat Oregon, 3-1.  In that game, once more Kirstyn Thomas had a pair of hits, with Sis Bates and Julia DePonte each adding one.

The team is winning, but bats are silent.

Offense Potency

This is the same team that had scored four, ten, and eight runs in the previous week.  On top of that, the Washington Huskies have six players who are batting over .300.  So where has all this offense gone?

With any luck, they will show up tonight.  Oklahoma is not the best team defensively. But they have scored four, five, and six runs respectively.  Tonight, there will be little chance of the Huskies holding their firepower to just one run.
