STANFORD, Calif. - Stanford's Jason Young limited the Washington baseball team to only six hits and won his 11th straight decision as the fifth-ranked Cardinal beat the Huskies, 7-2, in a Pac-10 game Saturday at Sunken Diamond.
Young improved to 5-0 with the victory, fanning eight over the nine-inning complete game. Stanford, which took a 2-0 lead in the three-game series, improved to 28-9 overall and 8-3 in the Pac-10. Washington dropped to 14-19 and 3-8 in the league.
The Cardinal took a five-run lead with five runs in the third inning. With two down and nobody on base, Stanford connected for four singles, a double and a walk off of UW starter Matt Massingale. Joe Borchard's single and Chris O'Riordan's double accounted for two runs each.
Washington scored its first run in the top of the fourth when Tila Reynolds singled, moved to third on a Todd Linden single and scored on an errant pickoff by Stanford catcher Damien Alvarado. Washington's only other run came in the ninth, when Michael Done scored on a double play groundout.
Done extended his hitting streak to 12 games with his ninth-inning single. Linden added two hits in four at bats for the Huskies. Massingale (3-5) gave up six earned runs over six and two-thirds innings for the loss.
The Huskies and Stanford close out the three-game series Sunday at 1:00 p.m. The game will air live on KKOL AM-1300.
