BUFFALO, N.Y. – A three-run blast by Brad Hamilton in the 7th inning would be the difference maker Wednesday night as it pushed Kent State (28-13) past Canisius (26-18), 8-5.
With two outs, Tim DalPorto and Dom Iero singled back-to-back to put runners on the corners in a game tied at five. Hamilton was called on to pinch hit and soared the first pitch he saw over the left field fence to make it a 8-5 game.
Patrick Dayton, Zach Spangler and Robert Zeigler all threw 1-2-3 innings in the last three frames to secure the victory.
