FORT WORTH, Texas - Despite a late Utah rally, a six run seventh inning lifted No. 15 TCU to a 10-5 win over the Utes on Friday, May 8.
Down 1-0 after Matt Vern's home run in the fourth, Utah took a 4-1 lead in the top of the fifth inning. Cooper Blanc hit a one-out single to right field. After moving over on Gavin Green's ground out, Blanc scored on an error as Michael Beltran hit an infield single, tying the game 1-1. Corey Shimada singled to left to put two on, setting up a two-RBI double by Tyler Yagi. Yagi scored as C.J. Cron singled up the middle.
The Horned Frogs tied the game at 4-4 in the bottom of the fifth before taking a 10-4 lead in the seventh inning.
Utah rallied in the late innings, leaving two on base in the eighth before Nick Kuroczko hit an RBI single with two runners on in the ninth to score pinch hitter Kyle Myers, who reached base with a walk.
Shimada, Yagi, Kuroczko and Cron each had a pair of hits to lead the Utes.
Ute starter Brian Budrow pitched into the seventh inning, striking out three in the loss to go to 4-4 on the season. Greg Krause, Tyler Andersen and Robert Chimpky also pitched for Utah. TCU's Trent Appleby earned his third win of the year.
The Utes and TCU play the second of the three-game series on Saturday, May 9, at 6:30 p.m. CT.
