ASU Baseball, Softball collect first home-wins of the season

PHOENIX - When the ball rolled in-between first baseman Ethan Long’s legs, it felt like last season had rolled-over into this year’s debut.

Then Arizona State (1-0) got the leadoff-man on-base to start the ninth-inning rally. Moments later, they were victorious in a 6-5 win over San Diego State (0-1).

Meanwhile at Farrington Stadium, ASU Softball (5-2) was packing up its equipment. Both games had started at similar times, but Megan Bartlett’s team was heading home early after completing an 8-0 run-rule victory over Portland State (2-5).

Both teams collected their first home-win of the year, with ASU Baseball winning its season-debut.
