All three winning pitchers (Bleich, Ratliff, Yount) in the series were freshman as the trio combined for a 3-0 record and save (Bleich) without giving up a run and allowing just two hits in 9.0 innings of work ... Yount and Castro each hit a home run with Yount also leading the club with four RBI, hitting a triple and going 3-for-7 (.429) in the series ... August and Phelps didn't play in the first two games but got into the act on Sunday as both picked up their first collegiate hit in back-to-back fashion to start a key three-run Stanford rally in the sixth ... In addition, Ratliff had an RBI on a sacrifice fly as a pinch-hitter Sunday
