Grand Canyon spoiled Chip Hale’s first game at Hi Corbett Field last month. On Tuesday, Arizona got revenge.
The Wildcats scored five runs between the sixth and eighth innings, after being held hitless through the first five, and paired that with stellar pitching from start to finish in a 5-3 win at GCU. The win avenges a 19-3 home loss to the Antelopes on Feb. 22 and gets the UA’s 5-game road trip off on a strong note.
Arizona (18-7) could do nothing through the first five against GCU right-hander Carter Young, who allowed only two walks through 5.
