Daniel Susac snapped a seventh-inning tie with a home run and the No. 13-ranked Arizona baseball team went on to beat visiting USC 10-6 on Saturday night for its fifth straight victory.
Susac's solo blast gave UA a 6-5 lead, and the Wildcats added three more runs in the inning to take control at Hi Corbett Field in clinching their fifth straight Pac-12 series win.
Jacob Berry, who went 2 for 4 to raise his average back to .400, added UA's final run with a solo homer in the eighth to make it 10-5.
Donta Williams, Branden Boissiere (now hitting .401 on the season) and Kobe Kato (up to .393) each had three hits for the Wildcats (26-11, 11-6), while Boissiere and Nik McClaughry both drove in three runs.
Chandler Murphy (5-0) earned the win in relief by retiring the only batter he faced in the top of the seventh. Starting pitcher Garrett Irvin allowed five runs in 6 2/3 innings.
USC dropped to 18-15, 6-8. The teams wrap up their three-game series at 1 p.m. Sunday.
