Finally we stopped the losing streak! In the bottom of the eighth inning we were down 2-0 to Binghamton and knew we needed this win to pick up morale. Bryce Nugent led off the inning with a base hit up the middle however the next two batters would be retired. With two outs in the eighth Jon Schwind and Eric Helmrich extended the inning with a walk and a HBP. After a wild pitch that scored Nugent from third there were runners on second and third as freshman Pat Welsh stepped into the box. Welsh hit a ground ball deep in the 6 hole and reached base safely which allowed Schwind to score from third base to tie the game. As the game is tied 2-2 at this point, freshman Nick McQuail is due up with the winning run at third. McQuail hit a hard ground ball through the left side scoring Helmrich from third giving us the lead and the eventual win. This weekend the Red Foxes take on St. Peters in a three game series that we desperately need to win.
