With two outs in the bottom of the seventh, Alyssa Barrera lined a single to center, scoring Ryley Ball from second to propel the No. 14 Utah Utes to a 3-2 walk-off win over the No. 2 Arizona Wildcats on Saturday afternoon in Salt Lake City.
Barrera’s game-winning single snuck under the glove of a diving Reyna Carranco and Ball, a speedy pinch-runner, beat Alyssa Palomino’s throw to plate, as Utah handed Arizona its first series loss of the season.
Arizona falls to 41-3 overall and 13-2 in the Pac-12, while Utah improves to 28-8 and 10-3, respectively.
