The Arizona baseball team suffered yet another walk-off loss on the road Friday night, falling 9-8 to No. 5 Stanford despite Nik McClaughry's game-tying steal of home.
Michael Lev It was an all-too-familiar scene for the Arizona baseball team at No. 5 Stanford on Friday night.
Arizona's fifth consecutive defeat away from Hi Corbett Field — following a 3-1 homestand that featured two walk-off victories — dropped the Wildcats to 26-21, 9-16 in the Pac-12. It's no longer mathematically possible for them to finish .500 in the conference, meaning their only feasible path to make the NCAA Tournament is to win the Pac-12 Tournament — assuming they qualify.

Both teams failed to score after McClaughry's latest theft of home. But the Cardinal loaded the bases with one out in the bottom of the ninth off Trevor Long via a single, a double and an intentional walk. Long left a slider up to freshman Malcolm Moore, who lofted a sacrifice fly to center field to score Tommy Troy and end the game.
