College Baseball : Two Titan Errors Give Arizona 5-2 Win
Cal State Fullerton committed two errors in the seventh inning Friday night that helped Arizona score a 5-2 win over the Titans in a nonconference game on Titan Field
The game was tied, 2-2, going into the seventh when the Wildcats’ Mike Fenne led off with a single against losing pitcher Doug Robertson. Fenne stole second base and continued to third when Titan catcher Rich Slominski threw the ball into center field.
Fenne then scored what turned out to be the winning run when second baseman Andy Mieto booted a ground ball. Arizona (13-2) added insurance runs in the eighth and ninth innings.
Mike Young pitched a complete game for the Wildcats and struck out six to earn the win. Fullerton (4-5) scored one of its runs on a bases-empty home run by Slominski.
The teams play the rubber game of their three-game series today at noon. The Titans won Thursday’s game, 7-4.
