Conference play is off and running and the University of Utah baseball team is looking ahead to its three-game series with Stanford this weekend after being swept in Seattle by Washington.
Playing away from home can be difficult but head coach Bill Kinneberg is proud of the work his pitchers did on the mound in their first league series despite not getting wins.
“When you give up seven, eight, nine runs for a three games series that is pretty good on the road against a really good team,” Kinneberg said. “Defensively, we’re fine.”
Right-handed pitchers Jayson Rose, Riley Ottesen, and lefty Josh Lapiana started last weekend’s games.
