SDSU drops Summit opener
3/16/2018 11:59:00 PM | Baseball
TULSA, Okla. – Oral Roberts scored multiple runs in five straight innings and went on to defeat South Dakota State, 14-9, in the Summit League baseball opener for both teams Friday night at J.L. Johnson Stadium.
The defending league champion Golden Eagles improved to 9-6 overall. SDSU suffered its seventh consecutive loss, falling to 2-15 overall.
Trailing 4-1 entering the bottom of the third, Oral Roberts scored 10 consecutive runs by tallying two runs in both the third and fourth innings and three runs in each of the fifth and sixth frames.
SDSU wouldn't go down without a fight however as the Jackrabbits drew to within 11-7 by scoring three runs in the top of the seventh with the benefit of a hit. An error and five walks, including consecutive free passes with the bases loaded to Anthony Schneider, Josh Falk and Newt Johnson, led to the Jackrabbit runs. However, an inning-ending double play with the bases still loaded prevented further damage.
ORU ended the Jackrabbit comeback hopes with two more runs in the home half of the seventh on a two-run home run by Riley Keizor.
Tony Kjolsing plated the final two runs of the game for SDSU in the eighth on a triple off the base of the wall in center field, scoring Skyler Wenninger and Ian Cote. Wenninger tripled to lead off the inning.
The two squads traded leads in the early going. Falk drove in Nick Smith with a sacrifice fly to give the Jackrabbits a 1-0 lead in the top of the first, while ORU grabbed a 2-1 lead in the home half of the opening frame on a two-run single by Spencer Henson off SDSU starter Brady Moxham.
Schneider connected on a three-run home run in the top of the third to put SDSU out front, 4-2. It was Schneider's team-leading third home run of the season.
The SDSU lead was short-lived, however, as the Golden Eagles began their offensive onslaught with a run-scoring single by Keizor in the bottom of the third. Nick Roark and Noah Cummings each tallied a pair of hits and two RBIs for an ORU offense that finished the night with 13 hits.
The Jackrabbits registered only four hits in the contest and were led by Schneider's two-hit, four-RBI performance. Of SDSU's four hits, three went for extra bases.
Moxham fell to 0-3 on the season after walking five and striking out four in three innings. He allowed five runs on four hits.
UP NEXT
Due to inclement weather forecast for Sunday, SDSU and Oral Roberts are now scheduled to play a doubleheader starting at 2 p.m. Saturday.
NOTES
* Oral Roberts leads the all-time series, 45-13
* Each team issued 10 walks in Friday's game
* SDSU's nine runs set a season high
* Wenninger reached base safely all four trips to the plate with a triple and three walks, and has now reached base safely in 12 consecutive games
* Schneider's home run was the 11th of his career – most among active Jackrabbits
* Time of the game was 3 hours, 36 minutes
