EVANSVILLE, Ind. - The University of Evansville baseball team employed sharp starting pitching, speed on the base paths and strong relief from the bullpen to end a five game losing streak, shutting out Western Illinois 4-0 in the Purple Aces' home opener of the 2018 campaign at Braun Stadium, Friday afternoon.
"It's good to come out here in the opener at Braun and win", said University of Evansville Head Coach Wes Carroll. "Obviously, getting back in the win column, something we're not used to over the last week, it's good for our ball club to feel good about themselves.
