It was supposed to be a tough series. Although the Arizona Wildcats had swept their two opening Pac-12 series, ASU had the No. 1 offense coming into Friday evening’s games.

Arizona was having none of that, shutting out the Sun Devils in all three games.

Pitching

Seventeen innings. Zero runs surrendered. There’s not much to complain about in that.

“Right now, we’re pitching; we’re not throwing,” Arizona coach Mike Candrea said.

The Wildcats used the rotation that carried them through last year, starting Taylor McQuillin in the first and third games and Alyssa Denham in the middle game.
