Alabama Softball Takes Two of Three From No. 11 Kentucky

I have never understood the pride of “winning a series” in baseball or softball. The term refers to taking two out of three games in a 3-game series against one opponent. To me, it is an acceptance of defeat. But I digress. If you like such headlines, then you are in luck because the Crimson Tide won their series against the Kentucky Wildcats.

GAME 1: ALABAMA 4, KENTUCKY 2

The Wildcats took a gamble and started freshman Alexia Lacatena in the circle. As the second batter of the game for Alabama, Ashley Prange greeted her with a triple and was knocked in by an Ally Shipman sac fly for an early 1-0 lead.
