DeMers Throws Shutout To Help Huskies Earn DH Split
April 06, 2018 | Baseball
**SATURDAY GAME ALERT**
Saturday's start time has been moved up an hour to 1:05 p.m. Stay tuned for any further updates.
Β
SEATTLE βΒ After dropping game one of a doubleheader, 5-1, to No. 11 East Carolina on Friday, the Washington Huskies turned to their ace Joe DeMers to reverse their fortunes and the junior did not disappoint.
Β
The right-hander out of Martinez, Calif., threw a five-hit, complete-game, 8-0, shutout as the Huskies (14-13) beat the Pirates (23-7) to earn a split for the day at Husky Ballpark.
Β
DeMers (3-1) struck out seven and allowed only six baserunners all night β none of which reached past second base. He allowed a base runner in each of the first five innings, but after a lead-off single in the fifth, he set down 12-straight batters.
Β
The streak was stopped in the ninth inning on a one-out single by Jeremy Whitehead, but DeMers coaxed Brady Lloyd to hit into a game-ending 1-6-3 double play on the very next pitch β his 103rd of the game. It was one of two double plays that DeMers started in the game.
Β
The Husky offense gave DeMers plenty of support. They pounded out 13 hits, which was one off the team's season hight, including five for extra-bases.
Β
Mason Cerrillo was 3-for-5 (6-for-9 in the double header), while Levi Jordan was 3-for-5 with three RBI. Noah Hsue, Christian Jones and Joe Wainhouse each had two hits.
Β
Wainhouse got the Huskies on track in the second with a mammoth home run over the batter's eye in centerfield. Wainhouse's blast was his third of the season and came on a 2-1 pitch from ECU starter Trey Benton (4-4).
Β
The scored remained 1-0 until the fifth when the Huskies sent nine batters to the plate and scored four runs to take a 5-0 lead. The Dawgs had six hits in the inning, including three-straight doubles by Cerrillo, Jordan and Nick Kahle. Jordan's double scored a pair of runs. Wainhouse picked up his second RBI of the game with a single and Jones capped the scoring with an infield single.
Β
Washington would score three insurance runs after there were two outs in the eighth inning to give DeMers even more breathing room. Hsue singled home the first run, followed by a Cerrillo RBI knock and Jordan RBI double.
Β
The Huskies and Pirates will wrap up the short two-day, three-game series with a single game at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday.
