Baseball Aces late rally not enough at Murray State

MURRAY, Ky. - Despite out-hitting Murray State, the University of Evansville baseball team could not come up the key knock in the final frame, as the Purple Aces dropped another heartbreaker on the road, falling to the Racers, 11-9, Wednesday evening at Reagan Field.

Evansville seized the early advantage, as senior catcher Andrew Tanous drove freshman designated hitter Pete Vaccaro in the top of the second inning to tally the icebreaker, making it 1-0 Aces.

UE sophomore starting pitcher David Ellis would give way to the bullpen in the bottom of third, and Murray State caught fire.
