BOISE, Idaho – Abby Bumcrot's performance off the bench sparked Boise State to a 4-3 victory over visiting San Jose State, Saturday.
After collecting a pinch hit single in the fifth, Bumcrot remained in the game and delivered a game-winning two-out, two-run single in the sixth to give Boise State (30-10, 9-5 MW) its first lead of the day.
In the seventh, with one out, Karizma Bergesen hit a ball through the right side with one out and appeared to put the tying run on for San Jose State (20-22, 6-11 MW). Bumcrot charged hard off the bat and threw a strike to first base from her right field position to cut down Bergesen.
Hannah Bailey (12-3) then induced a ground ball to end the game and pick up her second win in the series. Bailey blanked the Spartans over the final 3 2/3 innings after tossing a six-inning shutout, Friday.
San Jose State homered twice off Bronco starter Taylor Caudill and led 3-0 until Alison Seng belted a two-run home run in the bottom of the fourth.
The final game of the series is scheduled for noon, Sunday.
