For just the third time in school history, the Arizona Wildcats were on the losing end of the college softball mercy rule in postseason play, as the LSU Tigers won the first game of the Baton Rouge Super Regional 8-0 in five innings.
According to ESPN, all three instances of Arizona being run-ruled in postseason play have come at the hands of an SEC school. They were also run-ruled twice during the 2015 regular season, again, both by SEC schools (Florida and Auburn, both on March 6th).
The Wildcats only managed to get one hit off of LSU pitcher Carley Hoover.
