Huskies Canโt Overcome Four Home Runs By Wildcats
April 05, 2019 | Baseball
TUCSON, Ariz. ย โย Arizona hit four home runs Friday night at Hi Corbett Field in Tucson to sprint past Washington for a 9-3 win in the opening game of the series. ย
ย
The Huskies (14-10, 5-5 Pac-12) have now dropped five-straight games, while the win snapped a seven-game skid for the Wildcats (14-14, 3-7).
ย
The Wildcats hit back-to-back home runs twice in the game, both times off freshman starter David Rhodes (4-3). The first time came in the first inning when fellow freshman Austin Wells โ who came up a double short of hitting for the cycle โ took him deep to right field with a man on and junior Nick Quintana followed with a shot to left-center field that made the score 3-0.
ย
The Wildcats would repeat the feat in the third inning, with Quintana and Dayton Dooney both connecting for solo shots.
ย
Rhodes entered the weekend having allowed a total of five runs over his previous four starts. He also had not allowed a home run on the year, but Arizona was able to take advantage of some elevated pitches and chased Rhodes after 3 2/3 innings.
ย
The Huskies got a pair of runs back in the fifth on a two-run home run from their red-hot catcher Nick Kahle. The junior followed a lead-off single from Braiden Ward off Arizona starter Randy Labout (3-3) with his fifth long ball of the season and ran his team-leading RBI total to 31. ย
ย
Arizona answered right back in its half of the fifth with two runs on a Cameron Cannon double to expand its lead back to five runs.
ย
The Huskies chipped away with a run in the sixth on a Mason Cerrillo RBI groundout, but 7-3 was the closest they would get the rest of the way. Arizona tacked on two more runs in the eighth to cap the scoring.
ย
Six different UW pitchers saw action, including two innings of scoreless work with five strikeouts for sophomore Jack Enger.
ย
The Huskies reached double-digits in hits with 11. Kahle, Ben Baird and Ramon Bramasco each had two hits.
ย
Washington will try to even the series Saturday and will send Jordan Jones to the hill. The 3:00 p.m. game will be shown by the Pac-12 Network.
