Huskies Top USC 4-1, Secure Series Sweep
April 30, 2023 | Baseball
SEATTLE โ Jared Engman gave the Huskies seven scoreless innings and the offense did enough to get the win as Washington (25-13, 11-9 Pac-12) secured the series sweep over USC (25-17-1, 11-10 Pac-12) with a 4-1 victory on Montlake.
ย
Engman struck out four over his seven innings and scattered the two hits and four hits he allowed around to hold the Trojans at bay. Sam Boyle allowed one run in relief, while Reilly McAdams and Josh Emanuels combined to get the final three outs.
ย
Scoring on Sunday got started the way Saturday's affair finished, with Coby Morales driving in Will Simpson, this time with a single the other way to left to put UW up 1-0 after three.
ย
As Engman continued to set down the Trojans on the other side, Johnny Tincher doubled the Husky lead in the fifth, flaring a single into center field to bring in Simpson and put the Dawgs ahead 2-0.
ย
Simpson scored his third run of the game in the seventh and he did it all on his own, pummeling a solo home run 415 fee to left.
ย
The Huskies tacked on a run of insurance in the eighth largely due to Dalton Chandler's legs. Jeter Ybarra led off with a walk and was replaced by Chandler. Chandler then stole second, advanced to third on a fly ball and dodged a tag at the plate on a fielder's choice, putting UW up 4-0.
ย
Boyle ran into rouble in the ninth, allowing a walk sandwiched by two singles to load the bases. McAdams came on and got a pop out and fly out to limit the damage to one and Emanuels induced a fly ball to center to secure the save and the win.
ย
QUICK HITS
โข Sunday's attendance of 1,753 is the ninth largest crowd in Husky Ballpark history.
โข Washington's sweep is its second straight over the Trojans after taking all three games in Los Angeles in 2022.
โข It is the third series sweep of the season for the Huskies and the first since taking four games from Northern Colorado in early March.
โข Jared Engman's 7.0 innings were his most this season and tied a career high, set last season vs. UCLA.
โข Will Simpson scored three of the Huskies four runs in the game. Simpson finished the series with six runs scored.
โข Simpson's solo home run was the 33rd of his career, tying him with Jay Garthwaite for fourth all-time on UW's home run list.
