Baseball Completes Comeback with 10-6 Win

Seth Gray's grand slam in the top of the ninth capped the Wright State comeback as the Raiders won at Sam Houston State Wednesday night 10-6.  The Bearkats took a 6-2 lead into the top of the eighth as the Raiders scored three in the inning and five in their half of the ninth for the win.  SHSU received votes in the latest NCBWA poll.

The Raiders had 10 hits, including three from Gray with five RBI and two from freshman Damon Dues.  WSU also got a double and three RBI from Zach Weatherford with singles from Matt Morrow, Peyton Burdick, Gabe Snyder and JD Orr.

Wright State used seven pitchers as starter Bear Bellomy pitched three and a third.  Jeremy Randolph pitched the eighth inning to pick up the win as Derek Hendrixson pitched the ninth.

"This win was a product of our program culture," WSU head coach Jeff Mercer said.  "Competing for all nine innings and playing to our standard allowed us to fight our way back into the game and eventually take the lead late.  We've won three games vs. ranked opponents in the last week, I'm very proud of our growth and I expect us to continue to improve."
