Bodily doubled in a 3-0 setback for the Utes on Monday
SAN FRANCISCO – The Utah baseball team fell by a 3-0 score to San Francisco on Monday at Benedetti Diamond.
Â
Utah (1-3) now turns its attention to the 2023 Kleberg Bank College Classic, hosted by Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. The tournament begins on Friday, Feb. 24 with a 1 p.m. MT game against Houston and played at Whataburger Field in Corpus Christi, Texas.
Â
Center fielder Karson Bodily contributed his first double as a Ute in the loss, while catcher Davis Cop, third baseman Jake Gish and designated hitter Cameron Gurney each singled.
Â
Southpaw Bryson Van Sickle (0-1) got the start, working five innings of two-run ball, striking out five Dons against two walks. Merit Jones and Micah Ashman also pitched out of the bullpen for Utah.
Â
USF got on the board in the opening inning with a walk followed by back-to-back doubles, the last driving in two runs. But Van Sickle quickly put that sequence behind him, coming back with a strikeout and a successful pickoff move to second base, getting out of the inning without further damage.
Â
The 2-0 lead for the Dons remained until the sixth inning, when the home club added another run on a wild pitch.
Â
The Utes had runners in scoring position in five different innings, but San Francisco countered with a lockdown effort on the mound and defensively and didn't allow Utah to get across the plate.
