Baylor baseball notched its first series sweep of the season, this time over East Tennessee State University with a 7-4 win Sunday afternoon at Baylor Ballpark. ETSU’s closest opportunity came Saturday in a tight 8-7 contest, but the other two games weren’t threatening, with Baylor winning Friday 15-1.
The Bears (16-11, 2-4 Big 12) were fueled by a four-run third inning to attain the success over the Buccaneers (17-8). Head coach Steve Rodriguez was most pleased with the approach from the group, coining it as a “worker mentality.”
“I was just really happy with how our guys approached the whole weekend,” Rodriguez said.
