Arizona State knows what it has. Two guys at the top of its order in first baseman Spencer Torkelson and center fielder Gage Canning who, more times than not, are going to get on base.
The guys after them, however, can, at times, be a mystery bag. Unsure of its contents, sometimes the Devils will open it up and find gold. On other nights, they’ll leave empty-handed.
Yes, that is in essence the game of baseball — one night you have it, the next night you don’t. But it happens on another level for ASU (15-22, 7-9 Pac-12).
