Wildcats Run Rule Hoosiers, 12-1
03/03/2024 | Baseball
Arizona finished the 2024 Frisco College Baseball classic with a record of 1-2, having endured two incredibly competitive one-run losses to ranked opponents on Friday and Saturday before jumping on Indiana in the finale.
Wildcat starting pitcher Cam Walty spun a gem for Arizona, working 6.0 innings and allowing just one run on five hits while striking out three. Walty worked six of the seven innings and earned the win to improve to 3-0 on the year.
The Cats pounced on Indiana's pitching with 10 runs in the fourth inning, quickly turning a 1-1 tie into an 11-1 lead. Catcher Adonys Guzman, center fielder Brendan Summerhill, shortstop Mason White, and left fielder Easton Breyfogle all drove in multiple runs during the rally.
Eight of Arizona's 10 runs in the fourth inning were scored with two outs. Designated hitter Maddox Mihalakis finished the onslaught with an RBI single.
Third baseman Richie Morales polished off the scoring with an RBI single in the seventh, giving Arizona an insurance run as they went for the run-rule victory.
Right-hander Trevor Long slammed the door shut in the bottom of the seventh, setting the Hoosiers down without a hit to secure the win.

Here in Frisco, @ArizonaBaseball put up a 10-spot in the 4th, sending 14 batters to the plate to take an 11-1 lead vs Indiana. Mason White (pictured) sparked it with a leadoff single to oppo gap, then added a 2-run back-side single later. Easton Breyfogle's 3-run 2B was big blow. pic.twitter.com/eQQTZKqs85

Cam Walty has been great today for @ArizonaBaseball - really settled into a groove after laboring a bit in the first 2 innings. Has allowed just 3 hits over next 4 scoreless IP. Some front side funk lends deception, feel to pitch with 90-92 riding fastball, good cutter, SL & CH pic.twitter.com/ziC4lmPzfC
