When last we saw Arizona, it was walking off the field in disbelief after being eliminated in two games at the College World Series. Each got hugged by a head coach that, just a few days later would skip town for another job.
Fast forward a little more than three months and the Wildcats are a few days into fall practice under the guidance of new coach Chip Hale, a former UA star who was hired in July to replace Jay Johnson, who is now at LSU.
Arizona played its first of three fall exhibitions on Sunday night at Kino Stadium in Tucson, losing 10-3 to Obregon of the Mexican Pacific League.
