Dominant Wildcats Roll to 14-2 Victory over Huskies

TUCSON, Ariz. – The Arizona Wildcats (15-14, 4-7) put together a complete team performance to hammer the Washington Huskies (14-11, 5-6) for a 14-2 victory on Saturday afternoon at Hi Corbett Field.
 
Everything came together for Arizona as the Cats secured their second conference series win of the season. The offense collected 14 base hits and drew six walks, while the pitching staff limited the Huskies to eight hits – five of which were singles – and struck out four while issuing just one walk.
 
The Cats jumped all over Washington starter Jordan Jones early, and ultimately tagged him for nine runs in just under four innings of work. Arizona scored 12 runs over the first five innings to run away with the lopsided victory.
 
Catcher Austin Wells again led Arizona on offense, going 2-for-3 with three runs scored, a double, three RBI, and two intentional walks. Through the first two games of the series against UW, he has gone 6-for-8 with six runs scored, three extra base hits, and six RBI to raise his season batting average above the .400 mark.
 
Also checking in with outstanding offensive performances were first baseman Matthew Dyer (3x5, 3 R, 2B, 3B), shortstop Dayton Dooney (2x3, 2 R, HR, 2 RBI, 2 BB), second baseman Cameron Cannon (2x4, 2 R, 2B, 3 RBI), outfielder Justin Wylie (1x4, R, 3B, 2 RBI, BB), and right fielder Ryan Holgate (2x4, 2B).
 
Dooney blasted a two-run home run to right field in the bottom of the first inning, and now has four home runs in his last five games. Cannon swatted his 16th double of the year, moving him even farther out in front of his Pac-12 peers in two baggers.
 
Wildcats starting pitcher Quinn Flanagan continued his run of strong pitching at Hi Corbett, turning in a 7.0-inning gem in which he allowed just two runs on eight hits while striking out two. He earned the win, moving to 4-1 on the year.
 
Randy Abshier (1.0 IP) and Nate Brown (1.0 IP) closed out the game for Arizona, combining to toss two perfect innings of relief with a pair of strikeouts.
 
The Wildcats will play for the series sweep over the Huskies on Sunday afternoon at Hi Corbett. First pitch is scheduled for 1:05 p.m. MST on Pac-12 Network.
