Lobos Need Extras to Defeat Blazers

THE RUNDOWN

JACKSON, Miss. - The Belhaven University baseball team fell to the Sul Ross State Lobos in the final game of the series Saturday afternoon, falling 8-6 in twelve innings.

In the second inning, Belhaven crossed two runs over the plate with a single from Evan Moore, scoring Nick Lucido, then following up with another single from Julyan Urena which allowed Moore to cross to give Belhaven a 2-0 lead.

The Lobos answered in the top of the third, scoring three runs on two hits to take the 3-2 lead.

Down 3-2 in the bottom of the fourth inning, Hunter White singled to left field, scoring Trip Benson to tie the game back up at 3-3. The very next inning, the Lobos once again put a three spot up on the board to regain a 6-3 lead.

Evan Moore scored for the second time in the contest, off of a double from Julyan Urena, his second hit and second RBI of the game to cut the Lobos lead to 6-4. Moments later, Urena scored to make the score 6-5 with the help of a single from Trip Benson. The Lobos led 6-5 after five innings. 

Belhaven tied the game up at 6-6 in the bottom of the seventh inning after a Trip Benson double to right field scored Tucker Calhoun.
