Behind a complete-game shutout by pitcher Sam Landry, the Oklahoma softball team took game one of its Super Regional series over Alabama 3-0.

Landy gave up just four hits, while striking out five and going the distance in the circle.

The Sooners gave their star pitcher run support in the bottom of the third inning when Kasidi Pickering hit a 2-run home run to center field. In the fifth inning, OU added to its lead with an RBI single by Sydney Barker.

With the win, the four-time defending national champions now just need one more victory to advance to their ninth straight Women's College World Series. OU will take a 17-game Super Regional win streak into Saturday's game two of the best-of-three series.

First pitch from Norman is set for 2 p.m. and can be seen on ESPN.
