STANFORD BASEBALL

On a near perfect spring afternoon at Sunken Diamond, the combined pitching of Brent Hoard and Justin Wayne led #1 Stanford to a 10-4 victory over #5 Arizona. Starter Hoard went 5 innings for the win allowing 3 runs on 5 hits, walking 3 and striking out 7. Reliever Wayne went the final 4 innings for the save giving up 1 run on 5 hits, no walks and 5 K's. The Cardinal built a 10-0 lead after 5 innings with the help of 3 Arizona errors before Ken Corley's three-run HR chased Hoard to the showers and got the Wildcats on the board. Wayne entered and pitched effectively before giving up a run in the eighth as Arizona rallied. However, rightfielder Nick Day shut down the rally as he fired a bullet to home plate to nail a runner for the third out of the inning. Day also had 2 hits and 2 RBI's. John Gall- 2 hits & 2 RBI's. Jody Gerut- 2 hits & 2 RBI's including his 8th HR of the year. James Johnson took the loss for the Wildcats.
