JACKRABBITS BLANK UNC IN OPENER
2/26/2021 10:45:00 PM | Baseball
GREELEY, Colo. – Adam Mazur struck out 12 batters over six shutout innings, while Landon Badger and Ryan McDonald supplied the offense as South Dakota State blanked Northern Colorado, 12-0, in the opening game of a four-game college baseball series Friday afternoon at Jackson Field. The game was called after seven innings due to the 10-run rule.
With the win, the Jackrabbits improved to 2-2 on the season. UNC also moved to 2-2 on the season.
SDSU broke a scoreless deadlock with a run in the top of the fourth as Luke Ira singled, moved to second base on a wild pitch and took third on a stolen base before scoring on Carson Max's infield single.
The Jackrabbits scored three times in the fifth inning and broke the game open with a five-run sixth. Badger, a senior center fielder from Pierre, drove in runs in each inning, plating the first run of the fifth with a double and adding a two-run triple the next inning.
Badger tallied his third run-scoring extra-base hit in as many innings as he doubled in another run in a three-run seventh inning, while McDonald notched run-scoring singles in each of the fifth, sixth and seventh innings.
To lead SDSU's 11-hit attack, Badger went 3-for-5 with a career-high four runs batted in and three runs scored. McDonald was 3-for-4 with a career-high three RBIs.
Meanwhile, Mazur carved his way through the Northern Colorado lineup. After striking out the side in order in both the second and third innings, he fanned the first two hitters of the fourth inning to give him eight consecutive strikeouts. The next UNC batter reached on a single, but Mazur recorded another strikeout to end the inning, marking nine consecutive outs via the K.
A returning freshman from Woodbury, Minnesota, Mazur walked two and surrendered only three hits. Brett Mogen pitched a 1-2-3 seventh inning to close out the Jackrabbit victory.
Northern Colorado starter Dylan Bowers nearly matched Mazur in the strikeout department, fanning 11 over 5 1/3 innings, but also walking five.
UP NEXT
The two teams are scheduled to play a doubleheader Saturday, starting at noon Mountain Time (1 p.m. Central).
