There is an age old saying in baseball: “you can’t win ‘em all.”
And after starting the 2019 season 5-0 and outscoring their opponents by a remarkable spread of 85-22, the Arizona baseball team found out just that on Friday night in Houston: you can’t win ‘em all.
The Wildcats dropped their first game of the year, as the Houston Cougars knocked off No. 24 Arizona by a score of 2-1.
A solid start from Randy Labaut (1-1) was wasted by the ineptitude of the Wildcats’ hitters, as apart from the first home run of the season from sophomore Blake Paugh, Arizona only mustered one hit all game.
