Offense, Burgmann Lift Huskies To Win Over Minnesota
March 10, 2019 | Baseball
SEATTLE βΒ Washington (9-4) jumped out early and held on late to beat Minnesota (2-11), 7-5, Sunday night in the final game of the Seattle Baseball Showcase at T-Mobile Park.
Β
Josh Burgmann, the defending Pac-12 Pitcher of the Week who entered Sunday's contest having allowed two runs in his first three appearances over a span of 20 innings, was staked to an early three-run lead after a big first inning from his teammates.
Β
Braiden Ward got the home half of the first started with a single, stole second and was sacrificed to third. He scored when he beat the throw home from pitcher Joshua Culliver on a swinging bunt off the bat from Nick Kahle. The Huskies pieced together three-straight hits from Albert Hsiao, Mason Cerrillo and Ramon Bramasco β the last two driving in runs β to give Burgmann an early 3-0 advantage.
Β
Washington would go on to add on single runs in four-consecutive innings to build a 7-1 advantage.
Β
UW scored in the third on Minnesota's 10th error of the weekend and an inning later, Ben Baird continued his nice weekend by driving a ball into the left-center gap that got all the way to the wall for a RBI double that made the score 5-0.
Β
The Huskies scored in the fifth on a wild pitch and again in the sixth, this time when Jonathan Schiffer was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded.
Β
The offensive outburst proved to be plenty of run support for Burgmann to work comfortable. He ran into several jams throughout the game, but only allowed a run in the fifth on back-to-back doubles. In all, the Golden Gophers had eight hits off the sophomore and also garnered two walks. He ended up with five strikeouts and threw 89 pitches.
Β
Burgmann (3-0) handed the ball over to the bullpen after seven innings and things got dicey when Minnesota touched Stevie Emanuels for four runs in the eighth inning to cut what was a comfortable lead to a two-run UW advantage.
Β
The Gophers would try to mount one last comeback and had the tying run in scoring position in the ninth, but Emanuels got Drew Hmielewski on a check-swing, strike three to end the game.
Β
Cerrillo led the Husky offense with a 3-for-5 night, while Ward and Bramasco chipped in two hits each.
Β
The Huskies begin Pac-12 play this weekend with a three-game series in Eugene, Ore., against the Oregon Ducks.
