STOCKTON, Calif. — The Arizona Wildcats (13-4, 2-1) mounted a comeback to post a 13-8 victory over the Pacific Tigers (7-9) on Monday afternoon at Klein Family Field.

The Cats fell behind 5-2 after the first two innings, but strung together back-to-back crooked numbers in the fifth and sixth to create an insurmountable lead over Pacific. Outfielder Chase Davis (5) and first baseman Noah Turley (4) both crushed home runs as part of Arizona's five-run sixth inning.

Arizona starting pitcher Chandler Murphy, making his first appearance of the year after dealing with an injury, worked one inning in his return to the mound. He did not factor into the decision.

Right-handed reliever Quinn Flanagan worked two frames of three-hit, scoreless relief to earn the win and improve to 2-1 on the year.
