@WSURaiderGang Gets Big Tournament Win over Norse
5/23/2019 11:33:00 AM | Baseball
Bellomy throws no-hit ball for 5.2 innings
The Wright State baseball team notched their eighth straight win as they opened the 2019 Horizon League Tournament with a 15-3 win over Northern Kentucky Thursday afternoon at WSU's Nischwitz Stadium. WSU is now 42-15 and will host UIC Friday at Noon.
Starting Raider pitcher Bear Bellomy paced the Raiders with 5.2 innings of no-hit ball, coming out after six after allowing two runs on three hits. The senior also struck out seven Norse with just one walk on 92 pitches. It was his seventh straight decision as he ran his overall record to 9-3. Riley Perlich came on to pick up his first save, throwing three innings with just one earned run.
Zane Harris had four RBI, including three off a double in the fourth inning. Horizon League Player of the Year Peyton Burdick hit his 14th homerun to finish with two hits and three RBI. Junior Seth Gray ended with a double, two hits, two RBI and three runs scored while catcher Brandon Giltrow collected his fourth homer of the season. Leadoff hitter JD Orr had three walks, two steals and three runs scored. He now has a nation-best 59 stolen bases. As a team, the Raiders were walked 14 times, two short of their season high.
"We got excellent pitching from Bear to start and Riley to end," WSU head coach Alex Sogard said. "It seemed like all the hitters were up to the task today. It's nice to get the first win of the tournament."
WSU Scoring
Bottom of First
The Raiders started off with two walks, a balk and hit by pitch to load the bases as Orr scored on a double play by Gray. Tyler Black gave the Raiders runners at the corners with a third walk of the inning. Another walk loaded the bases again for Zane Harris, who drew a walk and an RBI. Â
Bottom of Fourth
The Raiders blew it open with seven runs in the fourth as Giltrow led off with a homer to left field. Burdick singled to shortstop to score Orr. Gray then singled through the right side to plate Damon Dues. Harris cleared the loaded bases but was thrown out at third as he doubled down the right field line, Zach Weatherford scored; Black scored and Gray scored.
Bottom of Fifth
Weatherford singled up the middle to score Gray. Chase Slone walked as Black crossed the plate.
Bottom of Sixth
Gray doubled to left field for Orr to score. Black singled to left field, Gray scored.
Bottom of Eighth
Burdick homered to left center after Dues singled.
UIC defeated Milwaukee 18-10 to advance to Friday's game. The Flames are 27-21 as the Raiders won five of six meetings this season. Milwaukee defeated Northern Kentucky 9-1 in the night game to eliminate the Norse. The Panthers will play the loser of the WSU/UIC Friday at 4 pm.
All games will air on ESPN+.
