STANFORD, Calif. – The No. 9 Florida State softball team (36-5, 12-1) fell to Stanford (24-12, 10-6), 9-8, on Friday night at the Stanford Softball Stadium
\n\u00a0
\nAfter the Cardinal put two runs in the bottom of the first off Ashtyn Danley<\/a>, Danley responded in a big way with a solo home run to lead off the second inning to put the Noles within one.\u00a0
\n\u00a0
\nThe two starting pitchers shined for the next four innings that included a 39-minute rain delay. The Noles used some two-out magic in the top of the sixth as Anna Hinde<\/a> hit a two-out double, and Kennedy Harp<\/a> singled to bring home the pinch runner Madi Frey<\/a>.\u00a0
\n\u00a0
\nStanford responded with a three-run home run to take the lead into the seventh inning.\u00a0
\n\u00a0
\nThe Noles were not done yet as they rallied for six runs on four hits to take an 8-5 lead. Hayley Griggs<\/a> got the rally going with a leadoff double, Jaysoni Beachum<\/a> and Isa Torres<\/a> drew back-to-back walks, and Marin Heller<\/a> was hit by a pitch to bring the Noles within two. Danley came through in the clutch again with a bases-clearing double to give the Noles the lead. Angelee Bueno<\/a> came home on a wild pitch, and Bella Ruggiero<\/a> picked up a RBI single to put the Noles up 8-5.
\n\u00a0
\nStanford was able to load the bases in the bottom of the seventh and prevailed with a walk-off grand slam.
\n\u00a0
\nGame two of the series is set for 10 p.m. tomorrow on ESPN.
