After dropping its first three games of the season, UH baseball rattled off the fifth straight win on Tuesday night, defeating Lamar 6-5 at Schroeder Park.
Southpaw Kyle LaCalameto got the start for the Cougars and made quick work of the Cardinals’ first two batters before running into some trouble. A hit by a pitch followed by a double and capped off by a three-run moonshot to left-center, all of which happened with two outs, put Lamar up 3-0 in the top of the first.
Junior left fielder Brandon Uhse got the Cougars on the scoreboard in the bottom of the third, launching a two-run home run over the left field wall.
