Baseball Can't Complete Sweep at Miami
April 07, 2024 | Baseball
OXFORD, Ohio – The Ball State baseball team couldn't complete a sweep of Miami (OH), as the RedHawks salvaged an 11-1 win on Sunday afternoon at McKie Field.
The Cardinals (20-13, 7-8 Mid-American Conference) scored their only run of the game on a Hunter Dobbins RBI single that plated Decker Scheffler in the fourth inning. Miami scored the first seven runs of the game with four in the first inning, two in the second and one in the third.
Carson Byers (3-1) tossed 2.1 shutout innings out of the bullpen to earn the win for the RedHawks (13-16, 8-7 MAC). Ball State starter Will Jacobson (1-1) allowed four runs to be hit with the loss.
Scheffler went 2-for-4 with a run scored as the only Cardinal with multiple hits in the game. Ball State's eight-game winning streak was snapped with the setback.
"We won the series on the road which is always our main objective. Today just wasn't our day," head coach Rich Maloney said. "All streaks come to an end, and having won eight in a row said a lot about our guys."
The next scheduled game for the Cardinals is at Indiana on Tuesday at 6 p.m.
