Held scoreless the first five innings, and down 4-1 after six frames, Arizona was staring a 14th consecutive Pac-12 road loss dead in the face on a cold, windy Sunday afternoon in Pullman, Wash.

Then the Wildcats remembered they have the best offense in the conference.

Arizona scored 13 runs over the final three innings, including a game-deciding 7-run seventh, to pull out a 14-8 win at Washington State. It was just the second road win all season for the Wildcats (18-15, 6-12) and first in Pac-12 play since last May at USC.

Tommy Splaine’s 2-run single up the middle gave the Wildcats their first lead in the seventh at 6-4, with Tony Bullard capping off the 7-run rally with a 2-run home run.
