LAS VEGAS - The Utah baseball team dropped the series opener 8-6 to league-leader UNLV at tonight. With the loss, the Utes fall to 20-29 on the season and 10-14 in Mountain West Conference play.
Sophomore Jason Price (3-8) suffered the loss on the mound. He pitched the complete game, giving up eight runs on nine hits, while striking out seven and walking just one. He now needs just two more strikeouts to tie the single-season record of 94.
Utah took a 1-0 lead in the top of the second on an error by the Rebel catcher.
UNLV took the lead for good in the bottom of the inning, plating two runs on a two-run double. The Rebels added another run on a sacrifice fly in the third to take a 3-1 lead.
The Rebels broke free in the bottom of the fifth on an RBI-single and a three-run homer to go up 7-1.
Utah scored again in the seventh on a one-run single by senior Nate Schlieman. After a UNLV run in the bottom of the inning, it was an 8-2 ballgame.
The Utes made it a game in the top of the ninth. Down by six, Utah plated four runs on a sacrifice fly by junior Matt Ciaramella and a three-run double by senior Jared Pena. But that was as close as the Utes would get.
Pena led Utah offensively, going 3-for-4 with three RBI. Freshman Jay Brossman was the only other Ute with a multi-hit game, going 2-for-4 with one run scored.
UP NEXT:
The two teams play a doubleheader at 2 p.m. (PDT) tomorrow, May 15.
