After barely playing as a freshman, outfielder Chase Davis leads No. 12 Arizona in home runs; plus: UA struggles at New Mexico and injury updates.
This comes as no surprise to those who were aware of Davis’ talent — or to Davis himself.
Despite his striking skill set — tremendous power at the plate, good speed, strong throwing arm — Davis couldn’t crack Arizona’s deep lineup last season. He appeared in 27 games with only one start. He totaled 32 plate appearances. Davis has struck out more than any UA batter , but he also has drawn the most walks . His patience carries over to the plate. Add in his consistently high exit velocities, and Davis profiles as a modern-day hitter who will be highly attractive to MLB clubs when he’s eligible for the draft next year.
Midweek malaiseThat bases-loaded situation was Arizona’s best opportunity to rally against New Mexico on a night when the Wildcats’ pitching faltered. Hale was pleased with the way Orloff and Javyn Pimental, a redshirt freshman, finished their outings. After allowing two runs, Orloff retired the final three batters he faced via a pair of strikeouts and a popup. Pimental allowed a solo homer to the first batter he faced then retired six of the next seven.
