Top-seed Fresno State and seventh-seed Boise State are scoreless after two innings of their softball game at the Western Athletic Conference tournament at Bulldog Diamond.

Morgan Melloh got off to a rough start. She walked the bases loaded in the first but escaped without a run when she struck out Ashleigh Viers-Gordillo for the final out.

One of the good things about covering sports is that every once in awhile you see something you've never seen. It happened in Boise State's second at-bat. Alexa Straton broke her aluminum bat in half hitting a foul ball down the left-field line. Split right in two. I know Melloh has a pretty good fastball, but that's the first aluminum bat I've ever seen busted.
