Quintana Leads Cats Offense in 11-9 Loss to Lopes
04/23/2019 | Baseball
Quintana finished the night going 2-for-5 with one run scored, one double, one home run, and four RBI to lead the Cats on offense. His homer – a two-run blast that cleared the video board in the bottom of the fourth – was his team-best ninth dinger of the year. He also expanded his team lead in RBI, with the season total now sitting at 43 – he's just 12 shy of his career-best mark of 55 set in 2018.
The Wildcats also got contributions at the plate from first baseman Matthew Dyer (2x5, R, RBI, BB), catcher Austin Wells (2x3, 2 R, RBI, 2 BB), shortstop Cameron Cannon (3x5, 3 R, 2 2B), right fielder Ryan Holgate (1x5, 2B, 2 RBI), and center fielder Donta Williams (1x4, R, RBI, 2 BB).
Dyer's two-hit night extended his hit streak to 15 games, putting him just two games shy of tying the longest hit streak posted by an Arizona player during head coach Jay Johnson's time in Tucson.
Next up for the Wildcats is a three-game road series this weekend against No. 3 ranked Stanford. First pitch for game one on Friday night is scheduled for 6:05 p.m. MST.
