SALT LAKE CITY – The Utah baseball team snapped a five-game win streak with a 10-1 loss to Washington State on Friday afternoon.

Washington State had a seven-run sixth inning en-route to the win.

The Utes (19-18, 9-11 Pac-12) had two hits on the day, coming from Hunter Simmons and Ellis Kelly, while Dallas Carroll drove in Utah's lone run of the game.

Riley Ottesen threw 5 1/3 innings, allowing eight runs on nine hits in the loss, falling to 4-2 on the year. He also had two pickoffs. Josh Tedeschi threw 2 2/3 scoreless and hitless innings while Trenton Stoltz and Hunter Rodriguez also pitched.

Utah's DaShawn Keirsey, Jr., was hit by a pitch in the first to lead off the first inning for Utah but was stranded on third.

Teams were mostly kept off the bases until the sixth, when Washington State scored seven runs on seven hits to take an 8-0 lead.
