On its way to winning the program’s first conference title since 2012, Arizona dropped two of three at Stanford in early May. The Wildcats ended up making the College World Series, but so did the Cardinal, who knocked them out of the tourney after just two games.
Now comes the chance for revenge.
No. 16 UA (13-4, 2-1 Pac-12) hosts No. 12 (9-5, 1-2) in a 3-game series beginning Saturday night at Hi Corbett. The opener is set for a 5 p.m. PT first pitch.
Arizona has won its last three, including the final two games of a series at Cal, while Stanford dropped two of three at home to Oregon to open Pac-12 play.
