Tucson Invitational

On Tuesday, Benedictine-Mesa (Ariz.) scored the winning run in the bottom of the ninth to take a 4-3 victory.

Jaden Yackley and Matt Meraz (JR/Aurora, CO) each had first-inning RBI as UJ took a 2-0 lead. Grant Okawa‘s double made it 3-0 in the third, and the score stayed that way until Benedictine-Mesa scored twice in the bottom of the fifth, then tied the game in the seventh.

Yackley and Zach Zurbrugg (SR/Bremerton, WA) both had two hits each. Tanner Roundy scattered nine hits over 5 2/3 innings in his first start of the season, giving up only two runs while striking out six.

Jamestown has an off day Wednesday before returning to action on Thursday with a doubleheader against Waldorf (Iowa) at 10:00 a.m. Central.
