Information from Arizona’s media-relations department contributed to this report:
One pitch was all Emilio Corona needed to send Arizona to a 10-9 victory over Nevada on Wednesday night at Hi Corbett Field.
The former Pima College standout smacked a walk-off home run to centerfield to give the Wildcats their second straight walk-off victory.
Corona’s game winner was the Wildcats’ fifth home run of the night. Davis had two home runs, while first baseman Kiko Romero and center fielder Mac Bingham also left the yard.
Davis now has 34 home runs in his career, tied for the fifth-most in program history.
He also extended his on-base streak to 59 games, tying what is believed to be the program record.
