FARGO, N.D. – North Dakota State's Peter Brookshaw delivered a two-run single in the bottom of the eighth inning to lift the Bison to a 5-3 victory over South Dakota State in Summit League baseball action Saturday afternoon at Newman Outdoor Field.
With the come-from-behind victory, NDSU improved to 35-15 overall and 19-11 in league play. The Jackrabbits dropped to 12-27 overall and 7-16 in The Summit League.
Each team cracked the scoring column in the middle innings, starting when Bennett Hostetler plated two runs in the home half of the fourth for NDSU with a single to left field.
SDSU responded with all three of its runs in the top of the fifth. Jamie Berg led off with a walk and advanced to third on a double by Avery Mellman. Jordan Sagedahl brought in Berg with a sacrifice fly and Mellman later scored on a groundout off the bat of Landon Badger. Luke Ira came through with a two-out single to score Jess Bellows with the final run of the inning.
NDSU tied the game against the Jackrabbit bullpen in the seventh on an RBI single by Zach Solano and grabbed the lead in the eighth. Jack Simonsen walked and later advanced to third on a base hit up the middle by Jake Malec. After Malec stole second, Brookshaw delivered a single up the middle to score both runners.
