SPOKANE, Wash. – Saint Mary's Baseball opened up a three-game set at Gonzaga with a bang, trouncing the Zags 12-3 in game one.
The win brings the Gaels within one game of Gonzaga in the WCC Standings, in a crowded upper half of the league bidding to make the conference tournament field.
It was another fantastic start for Connor Linchey, as he went 6.1 innings allowing just two runs on four hits, with two walks and four strikeouts. It was his fourth-straight quality start, fifth of the year, and the seventh-straight time he's gone at least six innings.
