Davis' Gem Secures TCU Series Victory
10 May
Summary
- Lance Davis threw a complete game for TCU, allowing only one run.
- Sawyer Strosnider's homer tied the game, sparking TCU's offense.
- TCU's pitching staff allowed just one run across the first two games.
TCU secured a series victory with a commanding 3-1 win in Game 2, highlighted by a complete game performance from pitcher Lance Davis. Davis, the first TCU pitcher to achieve this feat since 2024, limited Utah to a single run over nine innings, striking out four. The Frogs' pitching staff demonstrated remarkable consistency throughout the weekend, allowing a mere one run across the first two games.
Utah briefly took the lead in the fourth inning with a home run, but TCU quickly responded. Sawyer Strosnider tied the game with his own homer, followed by an RBI single from Cole Cramer in the fifth, giving the Frogs a 2-1 advantage. An RBI single in the sixth extended TCU's lead to 3-1.
Despite a strong relief effort from Utah's Demetri Diamant, TCU's offense had already done enough. Lance Davis shut down the Utes the rest of the way, securing the series win. The Frogs will aim for a sweep on Sunday, with Zack James expected to start, backed by a deep bullpen.
Looking ahead, TCU will face West Virginia in their final regular-season conference series, a challenging matchup against a top Big 12 team. This upcoming series is critical for postseason positioning, especially since TCU has not won in Morgantown since 2011.
