AVON, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) – The No. 3 seeded Eastern Michigan University baseball team battled all the way, but in the end ran out of juice in a 7-4 defeat to the No. 5 seeded Ohio University Bobcats in the 2017 Mid-American Conference Tournament Championship, Sunday afternoon, May 28, at Sprenger Stadium. The Eagles finished the season with a 27-35 record, their most wins since 2011.

EMU had the momentum almost all the way through the game, leading by three runs into the eighth inning before OU went for six in that frame to leap ahead, and hold on for the eventual three-run defeat.
