Broncos Drop Series Finale in Extra Innings

2/23/2020 4:50:00 PM | Baseball

 
AUSTIN, Texas – Boise State rallied from a four-run deficit before dropping a 7-5 decision in 10 innings to No. 22 Texas, Sunday.
 
The Broncos (0-3) trailed 5-1 in the sixth before picking up a run on a RBI-ground out by Joe Yorke. An inning later, Boise State inched closer on a two-out, run-scoring single by Chase Adkison.
 
In the bottom of the seventh, Jay Baggs, Boise State's fourth pitcher of the day, inherited runners at first and second with no outs. After a sacrifice bunt moved runners to second and third, the right-hander fanned back-to-back hitters to squelch the threat.
 
Down 5-3 and facing Texas (8-0) closer Donny Diaz, the first-two Broncos were retired. Matthew Farman kept the game alive with a pinch hit, two-strike single. Geon Hyoung Kim then jumped on Diaz's next pitch and deposited over the wall in right to tie the game 5-5.
 
After Baggs logged his third-shutout inning, Stu Flesland came out of the bullpen in the bottom of the 10th. He struck out the first man he faced before giving up a single and a game-winning home run to Cam Williams. The game-winner was called fair, just inside the left field foul pole, on the field and was upheld on replay.
 
"The biggest thing is we found out where we are competing against a program like Texas," Van Tol said. "There is so much we learned. There are no moral victories and at the end of the day we got swept. We do have something to build off of though."
 
Boise State opens an 11-game homestand Friday at 6:35 p.m. against Northern Colorado.
