EVANSVILLE, Ind. - With a chance to earn a big series victory over Missouri Valley Conference rival Indiana State, the University of Evansville baseball team suffered doubleheader sweep at the hands of the Sycamores at Charles H. Braun Stadium Sunday afternoon.
In game one, the Aces sent out junior starting pitcher Nathan Croner, who fell behind quickly, 3-0 through the first two innings. However, the southpaw would recover from the rocky start to keep ISU of the scoreboard the next four frames.
Meanwhile, the Evansville bats would finally get to work in the fourth inning, as senior third baseman Sam Troyer would get the Aces on the scoreboard with an RBI double to the gap in right-center, bring in sophomore first baseman Tanner Craig, cutting the deficit to 3-1.
