Crystal Bustos

Anyone know who she is ? Well, I never saw Babe Ruth play, but this girl is a current day female version of the sultan of swat.
What a swing she has.

She is a two-time Olympic Gold Medalist as a member of the powerhouse that is USA Softball. During her first Olympic Games in Sydney (2000) she led Team USA with 10 hits, three home runs and five runs scored. Four years later at the Olympic Games in Athens (2004) she belted five home runs and knocked in ten RBI. Since being selected to the team in 1999, she has won Olympic Gold twice and three times won Gold at the Pan Am Games.

Prior to her success with USA Softball, Bustos was setting records at Palm Beach Community College in Florida . She was twice named NJCAA Softball Player of the Year in 1996 and '97 and led the Panthers to the NJCAA Softball Championship in 1996. During her two-year NJCAA career, Bustos posted a .614 batting average, amassed 138 hits, 23 home runs and 102 RBI. In 2004, she was elected to the NJCAA Softball Hall of Fame.

    I second this request. Don't search her either. If you are thinking of a Jennie Finch type girl, you'll be extremely disappointed.

    I saw her in person once when the US softball team came to my hometown ( OF Kelly Kretschman is from here) and she would easily be an O-lineman for our football team.

    How about that Marla Hooch? What a hitter!
    This is for you @thisistheshow - Jim Rice was actually a pretty good player.
