Patrick Murphy has been very busy since the season ended. In June, the Tide picked up a transfer from Ohio State in infielder
Ashley Prange with the likely purpose of playing third base. This week, the longtime Alabama coach made a bigger acquisition in Tennessee catcher,
Ally Shipman.

ALABAMA 6, UCLA 0
The Crimson Tide did what they do best and that is get on the scoreboard early. Another seemingly competent defense folded under the speed and smarts of the Bama base running.
Alexis Mack got it started with a single and a stolen base. For some odd reason, UCLA brought their outfielders into Little League depth and
Bailey Hemphill doubled to the wall to score Mack. After a groundout,
Jenna Johnson would single in Hemphill for an early 2-0 lead.
The score stayed that way until the fifth inning when Mack singled, Hemp walked and
Kaylee Tow crushed a ball to the deepest part of the park to push the score to 5-0.

Montana Fouts held her own in the circle, throwing the first perfect game in the Women’s College World Series since 2000.
“I didn t think she would get better from yesterday,” head coach Patrick Murphy said. “But she did. To throw a perfect game against legendary UCLA is something else for a kid from a small town from northeast Kentucky. So it’s just an unbelievable feeling.”
The Grayson, Ky., native went to work at the very beginning of the first inning. Fouts faced leadoff batter and Olympian, Bubba Nickles, and forced her to groundout. Six pitches later, she recorded her first strikeout of the night against Rachel Garcia, the starting pitcher, and the other Olympian on UCLA s team.
