WSU wins in 10 innings, finishes series sweep of Texas-Arlington
Gunnar Troutwine’s third hit of the game drove in Dayton Dugas in the 10th inning to boost Wichita State to a 5-4 victory over Texas-Arlington on Sunday at Eck Stadium.
The Shockers (12-2) swept Arlington (4-9) in the three-game series.
Down 4-3 in the bottom of the eighth, Trey Vickers came off the bench to deliver a pinch-hit single, scoring Dugas with the tying run when the center fielder misplayed the ball.
Dugas enjoyed a career day with four singles in five at-bats.
WSU jumped to a 3-0 lead after four innings. Troutwine drove in Dugas and Ritter, who had walked, with a single in the fourth.
Three walks paved the way for UTA to gain a 4-3 lead in the top of the seventh.
Notes: WSU is 1-1 in extra inning games, having lost 10-9 to Nebraska in the 10 innings.… WSU head coach Todd Butler was ejected in the seventh. He objected to strike calls to Greyson Jenista and Alec Bohm, and home-plate umpire Ben Harlow ejected him. It was the first ejection for Butler since last April.… UTA had won its two prevous extra-inning games.… WSU travels to Columbia, Mo., to play Missouri on Tueday night.
