BGSU’s Late Comeback Falls Short In 5-4 Loss At Michigan
March 18, 2018 | Baseball
Box Score (PDF)
ANN ARBOR, Mich. – The Bowling Green State University baseball team staged a furious late-inning comeback, but the University of Michigan held on for a 5-4 victory on Sunday (March 18) afternoon. The game was played at Ray Fisher Stadium in Ann Arbor.
"Again, I couldn't be more proud of the effort," said head coach Danny Schmitz. "But the bottom line is that we have to execute. Late in the game, they executed and we didn't. We had every chance to win the game."
Trailing by a score of 5-1 in the eighth inning, the Falcons scored three runs and loaded the bases before Michigan recorded a single out. However, with the bases juiced and BGSU in a 3-0 count, Michigan clamped down and struck out three-consecutive batters to keep its 5-4 lead intact.
Bowling Green put its leadoff man on in the ninth, but the Falcons couldn't advance him, as Michigan hung on for the 5-4 win.
Michigan earned the sweep by escaping with the victory. The Wolverines are now 7-11 on the season. Bowling Green drops to 3-16. The Falcons are scheduled to play a 3 p.m. contest at the University of Dayton on Wednesday, March 21.
GAME NOTES
• Tyler Anderson got the start for the Falcons. He struck out a career-high eight batters over 6.1 innings. He allowed four earned runs.
• Damon Egnor came on in relief and tossed 1.2 dominant innings. He did not give up a hit, and the only batter that reached base did so off an error.
• Brad Croy was the lone Falcon to register multiple hits. He went 2-for-5 with two RBI. He hit a two-RBI double in the eighth inning.
• Jake Wilson went 1-for-4 with an RBI single in the second inning that gave Bowling Green a 1-0 lead.
• Randy Righter also went 1-for-4 with an RBI. Righter drove in a run in the eighth, and also reached base on the play following an error.
• Both Jeff Scott and Ty Suntken went 1-for-4 with a run scored.
• Gama Martinez started the eighth inning rally with a pinch-hit single. He came around to score in the frame.
• The Falcons also received hits from Neil Lambert and Derek Drewes. Lambert also scored a run.
