Different argument. Abbott was still the best pitcher. Just like Fouts was best pitcher this year. OU had an historically powerful offense this year. FSU was excellent at putting pressure on a pitcher with a mixture of base hits, speed and power. Sometimes offense prevails.What defines Elite? Speed, strikeouts, ERA or wins? Most D1 kids have a solid baseline to be successful if they can take what has gotten them to be recruited/signed and tapped into whatever else is left in the tank. To me the best to do it Monica Abbott is 6'3 and threw 70MPH vs. AZ in the WCWS and came up empty. She's elite, but no championship to show at Tennessee. Believe we all understand the message, just the messenger was the wrong person to deliver it. Lisa Fernandez or Ueno wants to drop that on twitter, you'll get more validity.
