Kats drop first WAC series of the season
4/23/2023 1:55:00 PM | Baseball
HUNTSVILLE — Sam Houston struggled at the plate in a 2-1 loss to Utah Valley in the series finale at Don Sanders Stadium on Sunday.
Â
The Bearkats dropped their first Western Athletic Conference series of the season after losing to the Wolverines 15-9 on Saturday. Sam Houston (23-18, 15-6) won the first game 3-1 on Friday.
Â
The Bearkats took a 1-0 lead in the first inning after Justin Wishkoski reached on a single with one out and moved to third on a throwing error. Walker Janek drove him on a groundout up the middle.
Â
The Wolverines tied it in the third inning thanks to a failed pickoff attempt at first base that turned into a two-base throwing error. A groundout to first base brought the run home.
Â
Sam Houston gave Utah Valley another run in the eighth. After a lead off double, relief pitcher Braden Davis walked three straight batters to bring home the game winner.
Â
The Kats return to action Tuesday at 6 p.m. when they travel to College Station to play Texas A&M at Blue Bell Park.
