Moore Throws Seventh Postseason No-Hitter In UW History

May 22, 2021

SEATTLE – Pat Moore threw the seventh postseason no-hitter game in Washington history as the Huskies beat Seattle U 8-0 in five innings. Moore's only blemish was a walk in the fifth inning: the senior set down the first 13 batters she faced.
 
Moore, who had only made one start this year and had three complete games in her Husky career entering tonight, did not allow the ball to leave the infield all game long. She joins Gabbie Plain, Taran Alvelo, Bryana Walker, Danielle Lawrie, and Jennifer Spediacci as the only Huskies ever to throw no-hitters in the postseason.
 
The offense was sparked by Noelle Hee, who had a solo home run in the second, then a three-run double in the third. Taryn Atlee had an impressive day as well, going 3-for-3 as one of four Huskies with multiple hits in the game. Sis Bates recorded her 315th career hit in the game as well, tying her with Ashley Charters for second in Washington history.
 
Washington would score five runs in the third inning to break open what had been a one-run game to that point. Ten Huskies came to the plate in that inning. In all, eight of the ten Huskies to see action in the game would score runs.
 

 

SCORING
  • Second Inning: Hee's third career postseason home run put the Huskies on top as she muscled the ball into the centerfield bleachers for a solo shot.
  • Third Inning: Sami Reynolds bounced one through the right side for an RBI. With the bases loaded two batters later, Hee had her second big hit, a double off the centerfield wall that scored everybody to make it 5-0. Lilly Agan, the ninth batter of the inning, would beat out a slapped grounder later to add another run.
  • Fifth Inning: Bates' 315th career hit put the run rule in effect, scoring two runs to make it 8-0.

 

NOTES
  • Moore (5.0 IP 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 4 K) was making her first postseason start as a Husky.
  • Moore has not allowed a run in five of her last six outings and has not allowed a hit in three of those six.
  • Hee (2x3, R, 2B, HR, 4 RBI) had her most RBI since driving in a career-high six against Utah on April 18, 2019.
  • Baylee Klingler (2x3, R) is hitting .500 with 10 runs and 10 RBI in her last 15 games.
  • Bates (2x4, R, 2B, 2 RBI) needs three more hits to tie Sara Pickering for the UW record.
  • Bates also moved into a tie with Jennifer Cline for sixth in UW history in doubles.
  • In her last four games, Atlee (3x3, R) is hitting .455.

Washington will face Michigan tomorrow at 5:00 pm. If the Huskies win that game, the two teams will face off again at 7:30 pm.
