ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The University of New Mexico baseball team came out on the short end of 5-4 game that was mostly a pitcher's duel on Friday night against visiting Air Force out at Santa Ana Star Field.
Both starters pitched at least 6.0 innings with UNM starter Drew Gillespie pitching into the eighth inning. Gillespie was on the unfortunate side of the decision, however, as he otherwise turned in perhaps his best outing as a Lobo. The junior right-hander pitched a career-long 7.2 innings and struck out nine batters while walking none.
