Out-of-this-World pitcher locks down Arizona, UCLA at CWS

 NCAA Women's College World Series

There's been a lot of photos and videos recently about alien aircraft touching down on U.S. soil, or on water, or under water for that matter. One of those ships from outer space must have dropped off out-of-this-world right-hander Montana Fouts.

Of course, Fouts pitches for Alabama at the 2021 NCAA Women's College World Series. She is certainly not from Montana. She must come from a place far, far away that builds robots who can throw a softball over 100 mph -- a "perfect" pitcher, a flamethrower, if you will.

Fouts mowed down Arizona and UCLA, two exceptional teams from the Pac-12 Conference, with 30 strikeouts and a 5-1 win over our beloved Wildcats and a 6-0 perfect game against the Bruins in Oklahoma City this week.

Only Arizona's Jessie Harper, the Wildcats own out-of-this-universe player, homered off  Fouts. Harper's blast was her 92nd career home run. She needs four more this weekend to pass Oklahoma's Lauren Chamberlain, who owns the college record at 95.

Of course for that to happen, Arizona (44-14) needs to start winning. The Wildcats next test: Florida State (44-11-1) at Oklahoma City today at 11:30.

Go, Wildcats!
