Wildcats Even Series With 8-4 Victory Over Utes
05/11/2024 | Baseball
Shortstop Mason White blasted two home runs and drove in three runs, while first baseman Andrew Cain contributed a two-run homer of his own to help lead the Arizona offense. Designated hitter Maddox Mihalakis and catcher Blake McDonald also provided major contributions, with the pair combining to go 6-for-8 at the plate with three runs scored and two RBI.
Candiotti, with the Wildcats one-game lead in the Pac-12 title race on the line, delivered a gem. The right-hander worked 7.0 innings and allowed just three runs while striking out seven to earn his sixth win of the season.
Right-handers Dawson Netz and Anthony Susac covered the final two frames, with the former tossing a scoreless eighth and the latter sealing up a victory in the ninth.
