Portland Bats Come up Short in 6-2 Loss

PORTLAND, Ore. -- The Portland Pilots fell in their midweek matchup against the Washington Huskies 6-2. 

Curtis Hebert (0-1) started his first game as a Pilot and took the loss on the mound for Portland (7-5). At the plate, the Pilots were led by Holcroft, who went 2-for-4 on the day with a triple, a walk and an RBI. Sophomore Zach Toglia furnished a noteworthy performance at the plate as well, going 1-for-2 with a double and an RBI. Junior Jake Tsukada also chipped in for Portland, putting together two hits in three trips to the plate.

How it Happened

The Pilots were unable to get any closer, as Washington added two runs to their tally on the way to a 6-2 final.
