SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Third baseman Alex Richter reached base five times and drove in a pair of runs on a game-winning, sixth-inning double, to support a strong pitching effort Thursday by starter Connor Hutchinson and reliever Garrett Harker. The trio led Ball State to a 4-3 win at Sacramento State in the first game of a four-game series in Northern California.

The Cardinals and Hornets will play a doubleader on Friday, and close the series with an afternoon bout on Saturday.
