Baseball takes WA 2-3 games

Utah baseball now 11-3-1 overall and 2-1 Pac 12.

We took the series with Washington at home. Our fielding and pitching is remarkably better than last year.

From the UW series preview—

“Utah is 9-2-1 on the young season, the program’s best start to a season since at least 1981. It took 11 games before the Utes lost their first nine-inning regulation contest (March 6). The other non-victories coming in a 10-inning tie at Loyola Marymount (Feb. 20), plus a seven-inning setback at San Diego State (Feb. 27).

Both the aforementioned LMU and SDSU games were called when a predetermined time of day was reached. This was established prior to first pitch as a result of the Utes’ return travel itinerary to Salt Lake City.”

So we very easily could just have two losses & no tie following the extra-inning L to UW.

I’ll admit, I never expected the Utes to field a solid Baseball team (nor Swimming and Diving for that matter) in the Pac-12. Our athletic department is fantastic. Now if only Men’s basketball could pull their heads out of their rear.
