Diamond Dawgs Win Wild Slugfest in Extras
April 28, 2023 | Baseball
Â
The two sides battled in seesaw fashion all night long, with the Huskies coming out on top 14-12 in 10 innings.
Â
Stu Flesland took a no decision after allowing eight runs over five innings. Josh Emanuels collected the win, retiring all five batters he faced.
Â
Washington took the lead in the second on RBI singles from Michael Snyder and Sam DeCarlo, adding another in the third as Snyder got a sacrifice fly in the air to center.
Â
USC cut into the advantage with a pair of runs in the fourth, but Will Simpson's single up the middle plated Aiva Arquette to make it 4-2.
Â
Aided by a pair of home runs, USC put up five in the fifth to turn the deficit into a lead, with UW answering with a two-run blast from Coby Morales to cut the sudden deficit to one.
Â
USC tacked on a run in the sixth but Washington once again responded right back, first on Aiva Arquette's first career home run, a blast to center and then on AJ Guerrero's two-run nuke to left-center, regaining the lead for the Huskies at 9-8.
Â
The run on offense continued into the seventh as USC added four on a bases-clearing triple just inside the right field line to score three, scoring himself on a passed ball.
Â
The next half-inning, Jeter Ybarra and Aiva Arquette went back-to-back, shaving the deficit back down to a single run.
Â
Washington gave themselves a chance, putting up zeroes in both the eighth and ninth. With the Huskies down to their final out, Sam DeCarlo slashed a clutch single through the right side, bringing pinch runner Dalton Chandler across the plate to tie the game.
Â
Emanuels set down the Trojans in order to set the stage for the Huskies in the bottom of the tenth. AJ Guerrero shot a single through the right side and Morales followed with a charge, putting a dramatic stamp on the night with his second big fly of the game.
