Â
FIRST PITCH
Utah baseball travels down south to take on BYU in their final midweek game of the season.
Â
The Utes have won five non-conference games in a row, but are coming off a tough series against Oregon.
Â
BYU has won three series in a row and has a record of 21-25 on the season. The Utes lead the season series 2-1.
Â
RICHARDSON LEADS THE OFFENSE
Matt Richardson has been on fire since the beginning of Pac-12 play.
Â
Since Pac-12 play has started, Richardson has been constantly on base and has raised his season average to a team-leading .372. His OPS also leads the team at .958. Richardson is also tied for the team lead with 26 RBI.
Â
The .372 average is the sixth best mark in the Pac-12.
Â
ROWAN BRINGS THE POWER
Christopher Rowan, Jr. leads the team with seven home runs on the season.
Â
Against Arizona State, he hit his fifth home run of the season to tie the game in the ninth inning. With a runner on and trailing by two runs, he jumped on the first pitch hitting it out dead center to tie the game at six.
Â
With Northern Colorado in town, Rowan hit another deep shot to center field for his team-leading sixth home run of the season.
Â
Against Dixie State earlier in the season, he knocked two home runs and had four RBI. With his three runs scored, he had a hand in seven of the team's 16 runs against the Trailblazers.
Â
His other two home runs have come as a pinch hitter.
Â
UP NEXT
Utah will travel to Washington for a three-game series on the Pac-12 Network beginning on Friday at 7 p.m.
