Tough 2 in Tucson: Cal loses pair against Arizona by way of mercy rule
Lisi Ludwig/Senior Staff
After going nearly three weeks without playing, the Bears were back in action to take on the No. 9 Wildcats for a pair of conference contests. However, the extra rest did not appear to provide Cal any sort of advantage, as the only thing hotter than Tuscon’s 93-degree weather this past weekend was Arizona’s softball program.
Coming into Saturday’s opener, 19 of Wildcats’ 31 wins on the season had come by margins of eight runs or more. Upon Sunday’s final out, the number was made 21 of 33; Arizona bruised Cal for consecutive 9-0 and 11-1 victories.
