Peltier Homers In Fall Win Over Great Lakes
October 03, 2019 | Baseball
Ryan Peltier hit a solo home run to highlight Thursday's 4-0 Ball State exhibition win over the Great Lakes Canadians baseball club. Seven Cardinals pitchers combined for the shutout and yielded just six hits in the 11-inning game.Â
Peltier, who hit two homers as a freshman last year, lifted a ball out to right-center in the bottom of the 2nd to put the Cards ahead 1-0. The pitching staff did the rest, getting quality work in while striking out 18. It was largely the same group of pitchers who held Butler down in an 11-3 win last weekend.
A ground-rule double from Devin Porter in the 6th scored Zach Cole to make it 2-0. Cole, Aaron Simpson, Noah Powell and Justin Conant all reached base twice among the 16 position players who saw action. Powell smacked a two-run single in the bottom of the 11th.
Garett Simmons struck out four while Sloan Thomsen, Tyler Ruetschle and Ty Weatherly all struck out three batters.
Great Lakes is a club of the top players in Ontario on a barnstorming tour through the Midwest. The team has also played Indiana, Illinois and UIndy among other teams before coming to BSU.
Fans can catch Ball State baseball once more this month on Sunday, Oct. 20 at noon.
