CARBONDALE, Ill. – Senior Caitlyn McCarron went 2-for-4 with RBI and hit a two-run, seventh-inning homer to help Bradley rally for a 6-5 victory at Southern Illinois to close the three-game series Sunday afternoon at Charlotte West Stadium.
Bradley (15-13 overall, 1-2 MVC) had jumped out to a 4-0 lead after two innings of play, but needed the late heroics after Southern Illinois (14-14 overall, 2-1 MVC) broke a 4-4 tie with a run in the bottom of the sixth.
After collecting just four hits in both games of Saturday's doubleheader, the Braves notched three hits in the top of the first.
