Chrisman Keys In Improbable Comeback

PROVO -- Eight runs in the seventh inning saved the game and the season for BYU, earning the come-from-behind victory over UNLV, 8-7 on Friday night.

On completing the roller-coaster night cap, the Cougars ended a 27-hour period with almost 11 hours of intense baseball, playing three games that all ended with two runs or less between each team.

BYU held off UNLV Thursday night in a four-hour marathon game for a 13-11 victory, then came back to Larry H. Miller Field less than ten hours later to warm up for a one-run ninth-inning 11-10 loss to San Diego State Friday morning. That loss came despite a superb relief performance from lefty Jeff Stone who enabled BYU to tie the Friday morning game with SDSU.

Then down 8-0 on Friday night, the Cougars completed the second-best comeback in Mountain West Conference Tournament history. BYU defeated UNLV for the second straight day, earning the right for a rematch with San Diego State for the Mountain West Conference Tournament Championship on Saturday.

David Seccombe gave up only three hits in his first six innings, all to Doug Jackson, striking out eight and holding the Cougars scoreless until the seventh.

"There is no quit in this team," said BYU Coach Vance Law. "We went six innings without a threat, then the guys started talking about how we needed to get something going."

With Seccombe tiring entering the seventh, BYU hit their way into the Rebel bullpen on their way to eight runs on six hits in the inning. Lars Birkeland and Ryan Chambers each hit two-RBI singles, while Jackson hit an RBI double. Matt Carson put the Cougars within one run with an RBI groundout, and Rob Itri earned BYU the lead with a two-RBI double to bring most of the 1,713 fans to feet.

"They started me off with a breaking ball yesterday," Itri said. "So I was looking for something off speed. I got a pitch I could hit."

Jacob Chrisman came in to contain the explosive UNLV offense. Chrisman registered his first win at BYU, giving up two runs on five hits in 4.1 innings.

"Jake (Chrisman) came in and pitched beautifully tonight," Law said. "Every out tonight was so important so we could save something for tomorrow. I was real pleased with the way Jake battled for us tonight."

Joe Wickman and David Trujillo led the Rebel offense. Wickman went 3-for-4 on the night with two runs scored and two RBI. Trujillo hit a two-run home run in the fifth, his third of the day and fifth of the MWC Tournament.

"I guess I'm almost as shocked as anybody," Law said. "We just never quit. We always think we have a chance to win."

The Cougars, now 27-29-1, host San Diego State, 43-21, on Saturday at 3 p.m., for the automatic NCAA tournament berth. BYU will be the visiting team both games because the Aztecs are the No. 1 seed.
