Blues Top Whitworth, Keep Postseason Hopes Alive

WALLA WALLA, Wash. - Julien Hernandez tossed seven complete innings for the win, Mateus Conaway picked up a two-inning save and the Whitman College baseball team kept its hopes alive for a spot in the NWC Tournament with a 3-1 win over Whitworth on Wednesday afternoon at Borleske Stadium.

The Blues (19-14, 10-11 NWC) entered the game barely on the outside looking in at a spot in the league's postseason tournament and did themselves a big favor with the win over the Pirates. Beck Maguire led the Blues with two hits, two runs and an RBI including a solo homerun that put Whitman ahead for good in the sixth inning.

Hernandez (7-1) was solid on the day, pitching seven complete innings while scattering six hits, allowing one run and striking out five hitters. 

Jack Leary tossed five-plus innings and allowed three runs on six hits. Cissne led the Bucs with a pair of hits.

Whitman struck first with a run in the fourth inning. Maguire doubled to open the inning and later scored on a Teague Conder sacrifice fly. Whitworth hit the Blues right back, scoring on a Doughty RBI-hit to tie the game.

One inning later, Whitman retook the lead for good beginning with Maguire's solo homerun to lead off the inning. Conaway followed Maguire's roundtripper with a double, then stole second and scored on a Conder RBI single.

The Blues close the league season with a critical three-game home series against Pacific Lutheran. First pitch of Saturday's doubleheader is set for 12:00 p.m.
