WICHITA, Kan -- allowed just two hits over seven scoreless innings while matching his career high with 10 strikeouts as Wichita State bested Long Beach State 4-1 on Friday evening at Eck Stadium.
Favors (3-0) did not allow a baserunner to reach third base for a second consecutive outing, limiting the Dirtbags to just five runners in total over his seven sparkling frames. The southpaw had to wiggle out of two jams, pitching around a walk and a single with one out in the second thanks to consecutive strikeouts, and then again stranding a walk and a single in the fifth by retiring the next three.
