College baseball: UCI gets rude sendoff

HONOLULU - The host Hawaii Warriors scored four in the last of the

ninth to tie the game, then scored in the 12th to earn a 6-5

nonconference baseball win over UC Irvine Sunday.

Steve Guthrie went 3 for 6 with two doubles, a homer and three RBIs to

pace the Anteaters (11-10). UCI also got two hits apiece from Chris

Miller, who belted his second homer in two days, Chris Klemm, Jon Horwitz

and B.J. Eucce.

William Quaglieri pitched 6 2/3 innings of scoreless relief, allowing

just two hits and striking out seven, to earn the victory for Hawaii

(6-9).

UCI reliever Glenn Swanson picked up the loss, his first in four

decisions.

UCI led, 5-1, in the sixth, but couldn’t close the deal.
