LAST TIME OUT: The UNLV Rebels rallied for four runs in the bottom of the ninth inning to defeat the CSUN Matadors, 6-5, at Earl E. Wilson Stadium. UNLV was paced by a 4-for-5 day and three RBI from
Jack-Thomas Wold, who tied a career high in hits, with three of those going for doubles. Wold had the game-winning hit – a two-run double – to cap the come-from-behind win, while
Grant Robbins and
Dillon Johnson knocked in one run apiece off a double and a sacrifice fly, respectively.
