Kretz Socks 2 Home Runs in 17-11 Arizona State Win
The Arizona State Sun Devils topped the TCU Horned Frogs, 17-11, with youngster Bryant Kretz playing a key role. Kretz was 3 for 3 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 6 for the Sun Devils in the win. Ernesto Yescas earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 3 hits in 2.2 innings. His record is now 1-0. With the win, Arizona State improves its record to 3-0.

The Sun Devils got a big hit from shortstop Jonathan Beck. In the bottom of the seventh, Beck smacked a bases-clearing triple off TCU pitcher Jay Norris. It was his 1st triple of the season. Suddenly, the Sun Devils were ahead, 9-8.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Beck.
