Lobo baseball used a key sixth inning to propel ahead in a back-and-forth affair on Sunday afternoon in an 11-9 victory.
New Mexico (23-16-1, 14-2-1 MW) got great pitching and some timely offense, as the bullpen played brilliantly in the eventual three-game series sweep over UNLV at Santa Ana Star Field.
The Lobos’ bullpen, which consisted of a mix of James Harrington, Drew Gillespie, Justin Slaten and Christian Tripp, scattered five hits and surrendered just two run after starting Pitcher Luis Gonzalez exited the mound.
UNM third baseman Carl Stajduhar said he felt that it was a team effort on Sunday to pick up the win.
