DETROIT, Mich. -
Junior Lynsey Ebel homered and the Bowling Green softball team pounded out a total of 12 hits in a 5-3 win at Detroit Wednesday (April 5). The game was the first half of a doubleheader at the Titan Softball Field.
Sophomore Jessie Milosek scattered seven hits and surrendered just one earned run in a complete-game victory. The win moved Milosek's season mark to 6-1.
The Falcons, now 16-8, got on the board in the top of the first inning. Angie Domschot doubled on the game's first pitch, and scored on a single by her sister, Jen Domschot.
The Titans (8-6) tied the score in the second inning on a hit, two Falcon errors and a passed ball, but BG retook the lead with two runs in the top of the next frame. The Falcons strung together four consecutive hits -- off the bats of junior Colleen Bates, Jen Domschot, senior Erin Zwinck and junior Nikki Rouhana -- to take a 3-1 lead. But, the Brown and Orange left the bases loaded for the first of two consecutive innings. BGSU left 13 runners on base in the game.
UDM got out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the top of the fourth, when third baseman Devon Brisky speared a Zwinck liner and doubled Angie Domschot off third base.
Stephanie Strauss cut the BG lead in half with a fourth-inning homer to left field. BGSU threatened to extend the 3-2 lead in the sixth, putting runners on first and second with one out, but the Titans got out of the situation.
Milosek, however, did not let the hosts gain any momentum, retiring the side on just four pitches in the bottom of the sixth.
Ebel doubled the BG lead in the seventh inning, hitting a line-drive homer to the left-center power alley with one out. A Carmen Hitterdal two-out single to left scored pinch-runner Morgan LaNicca with the final run of the game.
Milosek walked one batter and struck out two in the game.
Angie Domschot had three hits, including two doubles, for the Falcons, while Bates and Jen Domschot each had two safeties. Angie Domschot reached base four times in five plate appearances, while her sister got on base three times in four trips to the plate, as did Rouhana.
