Bowen powers Utes with six runs batted in; Flippen sets career runs mark
 STANFORD, Calif. - No. 15 Utah Softball smashed Stanford in the second game of its Pac-12 series, 11-4. Heather Bowen lashed a grand slam and drove in six runs while Hannah Flippen set a new Utah mark for runs scored during a career.
In the third, Utah continued its onslaught as Bridget Castro singled and scored on an Ally Dickman double. BreOnna Castaneda collected her second hit of the day and Kelly Martinez tapped a ball in front of the plate. With Dickman coming home, Stanford's pitcher flipped the ball to the catcher who dropped it, allowing another run to score.
After a pair of walks and a force out, Urtez struck again, singling up the middle for an 8-0 lead. Urtez finished the day with three hits and two driven in.
Stanford started to get things going in the fourth, notching six hits, all singles, and capitalizing on an error to plate four runs off Miranda Viramontes. However, the junior could do no wrong the rest of the game, improving to 8-1. She also struck out four batters during the contest before Hailey Hilburn pitched a scoreless seventh to close it out.Â
Utah closed the scoring during its half of the seventh with Bella Secaira starting things by singling to right. An Alyssa Barrera single followed a sacrifice bunt by Delilah Pacheco and Flippen delivered a RBI single. Urtez legged out an infield grounder and then Bowen capped her day by driving in Flippen and Barrera for a second time.
The two teams meet again tomorrow in the series finale at 2 p.m. PT/3 p.m. MT. You can watch the game live on the Pac-12 Networks or stream it via pac-12.com/live
