UH baseball opens AAC play with series win over Wichita State

UH baseball took two out of three against Wichita State over the weekend at Schroeder Park to open up American Athletic Conference play.

Friday

Pitching was the storyline of Friday night’s series opener as both UH’s Jaycob Deese and Wichita State’s Jace Kaminska frustrated hitters all night.

Deese tossed a complete game, allowing one earned run and striking out seven Shockers. The one blemish on Deese’s night came in the third inning when he allowed what proved to be the game-winning run.

Kaminska one-upped the UH right-handed pitcher, allowing just four hits and striking out 12 Cougars in eight shutout innings.
