ASU Baseball: Pitching carries Sun Devils to extras, run support wanes in 3-2 loss to UC Irvine

As the heartbreak hangover lingered after the chaos in Vegas on Wednesday afternoon, the hair of the dog set in equally as brutally in the form of an extra innings ASU baseball loss to UC Irvine Wednesday night.

The Anteaters (8-5) completed the two-game sweep over the Sun Devils (5-9) in southern California 3-2 in a quick-and-efficient extra-inning battle.

Starting pitching continues to be the highlight of this year’s squad. On Wednesday, it was the Pinnacle product Jacob Walker shoving deep into the game. Walker’s 6.1 innings pitched nearly doubled his previous season-high of three and change in his debut against Dixie State.
