Based on how fall practice went, Cam Walty figured to be in Arizona’s weekend rotation and Mason White was going to be in the batting order every game. But not everything works out as intended.
While White has started the majority of the Wildcats’ games, it’s only recently that he’s showed the kind of plate presence he had during those fall scrimmages. For Walty, injuries had kept him from being at full strength and limited him to long relief in a few lopsided games the past month.
On Tuesday night, both looked like the players the UA had been planning for entering the season.
