鈥淛ust one of those games, innings, that everything that could go wrong, did go wrong,鈥 said Sun Devils coach Rob Law. 鈥淛ust an anomaly that you can鈥檛 explain as a coach. The hardest part as a coaching staff is you have to watch them go through it and allow them to figure it out for themselves.鈥

Jordan Laidlaw (5-0) went five innings on the mound for the win, while Brady Renneberg earned the save. Spencer Klassen led the offensive attack with three hits, four RBIs and four stolen bases.

On Saturday, in a make-up game for a rainout on June 3, the Sun Devils scored 10 runs in the first en route to a 12-1 mercy of the Cloverdale Spurs.
