PROVO -- Brock Whitney’s walk-off single to left field sent Stetson Banks across home plate in BYU’s 8-7 extra-inning win over St. John’s on Saturday.

The victory came after a 7-6 win in the first game of the day’s doubleheader. With the wins the Cougars improve to 7-6 on the season.

Banks led the Cougars with three runs, going 4-of-6 from the plate in the nightcap. Sophomore Justin Shutt secured was the beneficiary on the mound in relief, securing his first win of the season.

The nightcap started with a Banks run off Jonathan Cluff’s ground out to third base. Defensively, the Cougars didn’t give the Red Storm many opportunities, with the first two innings ending in grounded double plays.

Walton hit a single up the middle in the third, advancing to second and sending Bryce Ayoso home for the score. Next up to bat, Cluff singled up the middle to run Walton in, giving the Cougars a 3-0 lead.

BYU extended its lead after an Ayoso single which allowed a Banks run in the fourth. The Red Storm got its first run of the game in the fifth and attempted to do more damage with the bases loaded. However, Miller struck out St. John’s Tim Morris on a full count to end the threat.

Pitcher Shawn Hardesty started the sixth inning for BYU, holding St. John's to no runs on one hit.

Walton hit a sacrifice fly to center field, advancing Ayoso to second base and bringing Dan Vargas in for the score. Vargas managed to slide home past the Red Storm’s catcher.

The Cougars gave up four runs in the eighth inning, tying the score 5-5. St. John’s scored two unearned runs, one after a single to right field and the other off a walk. The Red Storm scored two more off a double along the left field line.

Thomas Bills came up big for BYU, hitting a double to left field, bringing Walton in for the score. The Cougars’ attempt at a save proved unattainable as the Red Storm scored a run in the ninth, tying the game 6-6.

Two walks in the 10th set up a bases loaded situation for the Red Storm. A grounder to second base gave St. John’s its lone run of the inning.

The Red Storm intentionally walked BYU’s Michael Bowen, loading the bases with only one out. A hit by Dane Nielsen allowed Cluff to score on a fielder’s choice, tying the game at the end of the 10th.

BYU’s defense held the Red Storm scoreless in the 11th. Banks singled to center field and advanced to second after a sacrifice bunt by Chad Nacapoy. Walton was intentionally walked before a pitching change by St. John’s. Whitney clinched the win for BYU as his single to left field sent Banks back home for the score.

In Saturday’s earlier game, Walton recorded three hits, two RBI and two runs, including a solo homer, as BYU defeated St. John’s 6-5 in the first game of the day.

Blake Torgerson was credited with the victory in the first of the twin bill, improving his season record to 1-2.

The Cougars jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first inning as Walton started things off with a double to center field. Back-to-back walks for Sean McNaughton and Steve Parker loaded the bases. A sacrifice fly by Jonathan Cluff brought Walton in for BYU’s first score. McNaughton ran home off a Kasey Ko single to left field.

A home run by the Red Storm’s Greg Hopkins put St. John’s on the scoreboard at the top of the second. The Red Storm tied things up 2-2 in the third as a Jimmy Parque singled, bringing in Brian Kemp.

St. John’s scored two more runs in the fourth, forcing the Cougars to respond, which they did. A Michael Bowen single brought Ko in for the score. Bowen scored a run himself on a Walton single up the middle.

BYU’s defense came up strong at the top of the fifth, as Law, Brandon Relf and Ko combined for a double play in the infield. Offensively, Cluff scored off a Brandon Relf grounder to give the Cougars a 5-4 advantage.

Walton extended BYU’s lead to 6-4 after he hit a home run in the sixth, his first of the 2009 season.

The Red Storm attempted a final comeback in the ninth as junior pitcher Brandon Michon came in to relieve Marc Oslund. St. John’s Kemp scored one run before Michon ended the game with one final strike out for his first save.

The Cougars resume play on Tuesday, when they host Southern Utah at 3 p.m. The game will be televised live on BYU-TV and admission is free.
