Baylor Uses Surge in Fifth Inning to Break Open Close Game with Louisiana

LAFAYETTE – In a game where both teams had chances at the big inning early on, it was Baylor breaking through in the fifth inning with six runs to pull away for an 8-1 win over No. 12 Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Softball on Thursday at Yvette Girouard Field at Lamson Park.

The visiting Bears (6-3) delivered three run-scoring doubles in the decisive frame and the pitching of Gia Rodoni prevent the Ragin' Cajuns (10-4) from getting any closer the rest of the way.

Baylor's fifth inning scoring spree came after a pair of scoreless frames in the third and fourth inning between Rodoni and Summer Ellyson, seemingly quieting down the offenses that had ample scoring chances the first three frames.
