The right-hander, fully healthy after an arm injury, throws five scoreless innings as the Cats defeat the Cougars 5-2.
Michael Lev Chandler Murphy first felt the issue in his right forearm during fall ball. The best course of action was to shut things down.
“I felt great today,” said Murphy, who notched his first victory of the season in his fifth start. “I feel more comfortable on the mound now, getting back into the swing of things.” The Wildcats had three errors or five-plus walks in each of the previous three games. In Saturday’s loss, it was both. Long, a second-year right-hander, has emerged as Arizona’s most effective reliever. Sunday’s outing lowered his ERA to a team-best 1.04.
Long didn’t strike out any Cougars on Sunday. The outs came on two fly balls to center field and a grounder to third. He worked around a one-out single.“It's very simple: If we play clean,” Hale said. “If we allow our defenders to play, and they make plays, and we don't give them free passes, we usually are in pretty good shape.”
