Washington Tops Seattle U 9-4 on the Road
May 02, 2023 | Baseball
BELLEVUE, Wash. β Washington (26-13) trailed briefly on Tuesday but ultimately proved too much in its road game at Seattle U (15-26), taking down the Redhawks 9-4 at Bannerwood Park.
Β
Calvin Kirchoff improved to 2-0 on the season, allowing three runs on six hits over five full frames with a pair of strikeouts. Reilly McAdams pitched three shutout innings, while Grant Cunningham finished off the ninth.
Β
The Redhawks opened scoring in the second as Matt Boissoneault hit a solo shot over the right field fence.
Β
The Huskies answered right back in the top of the third, putting together a two-out rally to grab the lead. After a wild pitch tied the game, Coby Morales crushed a two-run blast to center, putting UW up 3-1.
Β
Seattle U got those two runs back in the bottom half of the inning, first on a pinch hit home run from Cameron Dayton and then on an RBI single by Boissoneault.
Β
Will Simpson put the Huskies right back ahead in the fourth, narrowly missing a three-run blast and having to settle for a two-run double high off the wall in left-center.
Β
Nick Hovland added a run in the fifth with a no doubt solo bomb to left and Washington tacked on three more in the sixth to create some breathing room. The first came in on a bases loaded walk, before Michael Brown brought home AJ Guerrero with a sac fly. Morales finished scoring for the frame, coming home on a wild pitch to make it 9-3.
Β
Dayton hit his second home run of the day in the ninth to pull SU closer but it was too little, too late as UW improved to 2-0 over its Emerald City neighbors.
Β
QUICK HITS
β’ AJ Guerrero and Coby Morales each extended their reached base streaks to 19 games, the longest streaks for the Huskies since Nick Kahle reached in 20-straight and Ramon Bramasco reached in 19-straight in 2019.
β’ Over the last four games, Morales has driven in eight runs.
β’ Nick Hovland's fifth-inning home run was his first hit of the season and his first big fly in a Husky uniform.
β’ Entering with one walk drawn in his first seven games, Aiva Arquette drew three free passes Tuesday.
β’ Calvin Kirchoff's five innings were his most in an appearance this season.
β’ The Huskies turned three double plays, tied for a season-high. It was the fourth time in 2023 UW has turned three double plays in a game.
