LAFAYETTE, La. – The Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns baseball team picked up a 3-1 victory over Louisiana Tech in a non-conference midweek game at M.L. "Tigue" Moore Field at Russo Park on Tuesday night.
Â
"Again we got pitching, defense and timely hitting tonight," head coach Tony Robichaux said. "That's the script. The question is, how many times can you do that in a 56-game schedule. If you could do that in every game, I'm not saying you're going to win all of them but you give yourself a chance to win every time out."
Â
Starter Evan Guillory (4-2) limited the Bulldogs (32-16) to one run on five hits in five innings of work to earn the victory. Guillory faced one over the minimum in the first four innings of the game.
Â
Junior Dylan Moore notched his ninth save of the season and 36th of the year in the contest recording a scoreless ninth inning in relief.
Â
Louisiana Tech starter Cameron Linck (3-2) was handed the loss after surrendering two runs on three hits in three innings with two walks and a strikeout.
Â
Louisiana (29-19-1) finished the night tied with the Bulldogs in hits as both clubs had six apiece. Kennon Fontenot led the way offensively for the Ragin' Cajuns going 2-for-4 with triple and a run scored. Jonathan Washam had two hits in the game for La Tech.
Â
The Cajuns grabbed the lead in the bottom of the fourth on a sacrifice fly to center by Alex Pinero to score Steven Sensley put the Ragin' Cajuns up 1-0. Later in the inning, Handsome Monica brought home Todd Lott on a two-out single back up the middle to increase the Louisiana advantage to 2-0.
Â
La Tech got on the board in the top of the fifth on a two-out RBI single down the left field line by Cody Daigle to cut the Louisiana lead to 2-1.
Â
The Bulldogs threatened in the top of the sixth loading the bases with no outs after a pair of singles and a hit batter. Reliever Wyatt Marks came on and got two strikeouts and then induced a ground out to shortstop by Sean Ullrich to get out of the jam unscathed and keep the Ragin' Cajuns in the lead.
Â
In the bottom of the sixth, Fontenot drove a triple into the gap in right center to lead off the inning. Two batters later, Brad Antchak brought home Fontenot on a suicide squeeze to give the Cajuns a 3-1 edge.
Â
Marks, Jevin Huval and Moore combined to allow just two Bulldogs to reach in the final three frames as Dalton Skelton grounded into a double play in the ninth to end the contest.
Â
Louisiana returns to action tomorrow night for the final non-conference game of the year against McNeese at Russo Park with a 6 p.m. first pitch. Only tickets for the regularly scheduled date of April 26 will be used for admission to the game.
