Washington Completes Season Sweep of Seattle U
May 09, 2023 | Baseball
SEATTLE β For the third time in 2023, Washington (29-14) defeated its crosstown neighbor Seattle U (17-28) on Tuesday, topping the Redhawks 9-2 at Husky Ballpark.
Β
Opener Case Matter picked up the win, throwing two scoreless innings with three strikeouts. From there, the Huskies went Johnny Wholestaff to complete the contest, utilizing six relief pitchers.
Β
McKay Barney got scoring started for the Huskies in the second, plating AJ Guerrero with a ground ball to third, with Cooper Whitton following with a two-run single lifted to center field.
Β
The next inning, Seattle U got on the board with a run before Aiva Arquette added on to the Husky lead with a bang. The true freshman pummeled a 1-0 offering, hammering a three-run bomb high up the batter's eye in center to make it 6-0.
Β
Following a scoreless fourth, UW scratched two more across in the fifth. Coby Morales crossed home plate on a wild pitch, with AJ Guerrero moving to third and coming home himself on Barney's sacrifice fly.
Β
An RBI fielder's choice got another run back for the Redhawks in the sixth but Guerrero answered with a solo shot in the seventh, dropping a homer over the wall in left-center and into Union Bay to cap scoring for the night.
Β
