WSU baseball stuns No. 9 Arizona to take first Pac-12 series of the year

The Washington State Cougars snagged a series win over the No. 9 Arizona Wildcats over the weekend.

After dropping 11 straight road games, WSU (12-19, 4-11 in Pac-12) picked up the first two games, including a late rally in game two, to secure their first conference series win of the season. Arizona (22-10, 10-5) avoided the sweep with a game three victory on Sunday afternoon.

Game 1: WSU 11, Arizona 5

Arizona jumped on Cougs starter Cole McMillan right out of the gate. McMillan (2-3, 7.20 ERA) plunked Wildcats leadoff man Mac Bingham on a two-strike count then walked two of the next three Wildcat batters to load the bases with just one out.
