DSB Trivia AnswerD — 6. In addition to pitching Arizona to six wins in the 2007 WCWS, Mowatt also threw eight complete games in the series, also a WCWS record.

Blaire Luna struck out 14 in aone-hit shutout, Kim Bruins hit athree-run home run and fourth-seeded Texas beat Florida 3-0 Sun-day to eliminate the Gators.Luna, the nation’s strikeout

leader, gave up only a one-out singleto Taylore Fuller in the fourth in-ning that zipped down the left-fieldline. The Gators were playing justmore than 12 hours after prevailing9-8 against Nebraska in the fifthWorld Series game to go 15 innings or longer.Bruins provided the Longhorns’ only offense with a drive that just barely

cleared the left-field fence in the top of the fourth inning. Taylor Hoaglandand Taylor Thom drew walks before Bruins’ three-run shot.
