Arizona Beats Cal Poly, 3-2, in Eugene Regional Opener


EUGENE, Ore. — The Arizona Wildcats (40-18) moved into the winner’s bracket at the Eugene Regional with a 3-2 win over the Cal Poly Mustangs (41-18) on Friday afternoon at PK Park.

Arizona’s offense was powered by an RBI triple from first baseman Tommy Splaine and a two-run home run from left fielder Easton Breyfogle, both of which came in back-to-back at-bats in the second inning. The Wildcats did not collect another hit over the remainder of the game but hung on to secure the 3-2 victory.

Starting pitcher Owen Kramkowski earned the win to improve to 9-5 on the year after issuing his second straight quality start. The tall right-hander worked 7.0 innings and allowed just one run while striking out seven.

Arizona closer Tony Pluta entered in the ninth inning and slammed the door on the Mustangs, picking up his 13th save of the season.
