Flashes Clip Eagles to Take Series
4/7/2024 3:56:00 PM | Baseball
KENT- The Golden Flashes jumped up early on Eastern Michigan and rolled to a 9-2 victory on Sunday afternoon at Schoonover Stadium.
The Flashes jumped out a three-run lead in the first on the back of a wild pitch and a two-run double off the bat of Brody Williams. They'd score the first eight runs on the day, with Kyle Jackson adding an RBI triple and a Hunter Klotz three-run homer in the third.
That was more than enough run support for Eric Chalus, who stymied the Eagles all day on Sunday. The lefty went 6.2 innings, scattering four hits and allowing one run and striking out five. Rocco Bernadina got the final seven outs allowing one unearned run and striking out two.
It was another balanced offensive effort for the Flashes, who took advantage of six Eagle walks and six different Flashes had at least one hit while eight starters scored a run.
Kent State scored 41 runs on the weekend as Kent State took two of three in the series to move to 7-5 in MAC play and 14-15 overall. The Flashes stay at home on Tuesday, welcoming in the Pitt Panthers for a 6 p.m. first pitch.
