Stillwater, Okla.--Bobby Winkles didn't want to put things off any longer.

"I told the boys to take care of business tonight," said Winkles.

Winkles' "boys" did just that as Arizona State downed Oklahoma State 5-1. The victory, coupled with Southern California's 9-6 loss to Stanford, clinced the All-American Baseball League West pennant for the Sun Devils.

"It's a great feeling," said Arizona State starter Paul Moskau, who pitched 6.1 innings and allowed no earned runs. Moskau (shown below) improved his record to 13-7. Lerrin LaGrow finished off the game for the Sun Devils to earn his seventh save. Tim Borland (9-9) was the loser for the Cowboys.

Arizona State scored single runs in the second, third and ninth innings. The Sun Devils had a two-run seventh inning. Hubie Brooks and Reggie Jackson each had RBI triples.

Winkles indicated that he would begin resting players in preparation for the College World Series.

"I'll do it strategically though," Winkles said. "I don't want our guys to lose their edge."

Arizona State, 104-43, concludes its series at Oklahoma State Tuesday afternoon.
