Alex Call is becoming Virginia’s clutch bat with pop and poise
In the 2026 season, Virginia infielder Alex Call has emerged as a real middle-order difference-maker, highlighted by a three-run homer against No. 11 Virginia Tech and a grand slam vs. NC State. She entered 2026 after a solid freshman year in 2025, when she hit .294 in limited action, and now looks like a player whose value goes beyond the box score: coaches and teammates trust her, she’s been praised for resiliency, and she’s shown she can deliver in high-leverage moments. If you want a tough, upward-trending infielder with competitive grit and legit game-changing contact, she’s worth your attention.
