A one-out throwing error in the ninth inning capped UNLV’s two-run rally in its 6-5 victory over Air Force in a Mountain West baseball game Saturday at Wilson Stadium.

Nick Rodriguez and Ernie De La Trinidad hit consecutive singles after a one-out walk to load the bases in the ninth.

Justin Jones then hit a ground ball that second baseman Shaun Mize threw away, and the tying and winning runs scored in the Rebels’ second walk-off win over the Falcons (6-8, 0-5) in as many days.
