Red Raiders Take Classic Opener

Image

LUBBOCK -- Three times the score was tied Thursday in a baseball game BYU lost to host Texas Tech, 7-4, to open the Brooks Wallace Classic.

The Red Raiders remained perfect at 5-0, while BYU fell to 1-3 after knotting the score at 1-1, 3-3 and 4-4.

“We swung the bats better, “ said BYU coach Vance Law. “We are still striking out too much, but that will change. We continue to battle, but I’m not discouraged, just disappointed.”

BYU’s Austin Hall hit a one-out double to left field, then stole third and scored on a sac-fly by Chase Frampton to tie the score 1-1 in the second.

Cougar Ryan Bernal, who played left field instead of first base, gave BYU a brief 2-1 lead in the fourth when he hit a solo homer to right field off a full count.

Catcher Alex Wolfe joined Hall in advancing their hitting streaks to 16 games apiece when he hit a one-out solo homer in the sixth. Wolfe’s homer, his first of the year, came off the Red Raiders’ third reliever of the game to tie the score 3-3.

In the seventh BYU tied the score once again when Frampton led off with a single and scored off Stephen Wells’ two-out double.

“I’m disappointed we didn’t score more runs with all of our hits and extra bases,” said Law. “We had runners at second base a lot with one out, then weren’t able to get a couple of big hits. We put ourselves into a bind by walking too many and hitting a batter. Each time we scored they came back.”

BYU co-captain Andrew Law went hitless to end his eight-game hitting streak.

Game times for Friday’s contests have been moved back one hour to 1 and 5 p.m., against Northern Illinois, 0-2, and Texas Tech, respectively.

Texas Tech Tournament

Image

Host Texas Tech is 4-0, Northern Illinois is 0-2 and BYU’s baseball team is in between at 1-2 going into this week’s Brooks Wallace Classic at Lubbock, Texas.

“We are hoping to see changes in some of our performances,” said BYU coach Vance Law. “Our staff pitched well enough last week, but we need better offensive approaches to utilize our talents.”

On the mound for Thursday evening’s opener for the Cougars will be right-hander Chris Capper (0-0, 12.27). Friday’s doubleheader begins at noon with Taylor Cole (1-0, 0.00) on the mound against Northern Illinois, followed by Matthew Neil (0-0, 0.00) in the nightcap rematch against Texas Tech. Saturday’s starter vs. Northern Illinois will be southpaw Mark Anderson (0-0, 1.29).

For the second week in a row BYU will be on artificial turf. The Cougars practiced indoors on Monday and outdoors Tuesday before leaving for Texas.

Austin Hall and Alex Wolfe lead the team with current 15-game hitting streaks. Andrew Law has a current eight-game hitting streak.
