Arizona has not committed an error in its last five games, the second time that’s happened since mid-April. This may not seem like a big deal, but considering the Wildcats lead the Pac-12 with 54 errors it’s quite the accomplishment.
And staying clean in the field can only help the UA as it prepares to take on first place Oregon State this weekend in its final series of the regular season at Hi Corbett Field.
The Beavers (39-9, 18-6) lead the nation in fielding percentage at .989, committing just 19 errors. They’ve only had seven unearned runs, compared to 46 for Arizona, but don’t give up many runs in general.
