Antelopes Drop Two to Hawai'i Pacific
3/18/2011 7:52:01 PM | Baseball
The Grand Canyon University baseball team dropped two games today to Hawai’i Pacific, 6-4 and 7-5, at Brazell Stadium in Phoenix.
The losses drop GCU to 11-15 overall and 7-9 in the Pacific West Conference. HPU improved to 9-13, 7-5 in the conference.
The Antelopes fell behind 5-1 in the opener, before mounting a rally in the sixth. GCU would score three runs on the benefit of five walks in the inning. After cutting the HPU lead to 5-4, Sea Warriors reliever, Corey Yuh, was able to strike out R.J. Etchebarren and induce Tyler Bair into a fly out to right to escape the bases loaded jam.
Grand Canyon would once again rally in the eighth as Joey Bristyan and Ernesto Ortiz collected back-to-back one-out singles. HPU reliever Yuh was once again able to work out of the difficulty, getting Etchebarren and Tyler Kamtz to fly out.
David Wydeven (1-2) took the loss on the mound, allowing five runs (two earned) on eight hits over 6.0 innings.
The Antelopes jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning of the nightcap on three hits and three Sea Warrior errors.
After HPU tied the game 3-3 in the second, Joe Jacobson hit a line drive pinch-hit single to score Kalab Evans and PJ Garcia, giving the ‘Lopes a 5-3 lead.
Hawai’i Pacific would later tag on a run in the fourth and three more in the fifth to gain a 7-5 lead.
As was the case in game one, the Antelopes had chances to get back into the game, but left two runners aboard in the sixth and seventh innings.
William Armijo was charged with the loss in relief of Colin Courtland, allowing four runs (three earned) on six hits over 2.0 innings.
Grand Canyon remains at home for a five-game series with conference foe Hawai’i Hilo, beginning on March 25 at 1:00 p.m.
Game Notes – Bristyan has hit safely in 14-straight games…P.J. Garcia was 4-for-8 in the two games today…Justin McKee fanned the side in the seventh…the Antelopes left a combined 22 runners on base today (12 in game one)…GCU had a season high three double plays (two GIDP) in game one…the five Antelope errors in game one are the second-most this season (allowed six on Feb. 28 at Hilo)…GCU hitters earned 23 walks in the four-game series.
