Home sweet home?
No. 9 Arizona returns to Hillenbrand Stadium this weekend for a four-game series against Oregon State, their first action at Rita since Feb. 28 when they beat the Beavers 3-2 in a non-conference setting.
Oh, how much can change in a month.
The Wildcats (14-5, 0-2) left that game unbeaten and returned with five losses after some tough moments in Florida and Washington. They enter Friday’s series opener on a three-game skid and losers of four of their last five.
An ice-cold offense is to blame. Arizona has produced just six runs during this 1-4 stretch, including three runs in two losses in the rain at Washington last weekend.
