PROVO — Eric Urry scored from third base on a walk-off sacrifice fly to cap a five-run ninth inning as No. 30 BYU baseball knocked off visiting Gonzaga 5-4 to finish off the series Saturday in Provo.

Bronson Larsen drove in the winning run with a pop-up to deep center field, giving Urry just enough time to scamper home with the game-winning run.

The Bulldogs took a 4-0 lead into the bottom of the ninth after scoring four runs on nine hits. But Gonzaga, which left 14 players on base, gave up the shutout when Tanner Chauncey drove in Jackson Cluff to start the rally.

Hayden Nielson, Nate Favero and Danny Gelalich also scored in the ninth for BYU, setting up Bronson Larsen's heroic cut to end the game.

Chauncey went 4-for-5 with an RBI to lead the Cougars, and Keaton Kringlen was 2-for-5 with an RBI. Winning pitcher Jordan Wood tossed 0.2 innings of relief with two strikeouts and no hits or runs allowed.
