CLEARWATER, Fla. – After battling back from early 4-0 and 6-2 deficits, the Memphis Tigers (26-28, 9-15) tied the game on a run-scoring wild pitch in the fifth, took the lead on a solo home run by DH Jacob Compton in the sixth, only to see the Houston Cougars (36-22, 13-11) tie the game in the seventh and get a bases loaded walk-off single from DH Santiago Garcia in the ninth. #3 Houston picked up an 8-7 win to move to 2-0 in the AAC Tournament, while the loss for the Tigers sets up an elimination game rematch Friday with #2 UCF, who Memphis beat 7-6 Tuesday.
