Maryland baseball walked into Ray Fisher Stadium in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Saturday with a chance to clinch this weekend’s series against No. 24 Michigan.
Any aspirations of a sweep of the ranked Wolverines were quickly dashed, as Maryland faced a 6-0 deficit after the first three innings of play. With two outs in the bottom of the fourth, second baseman Ted Burton dug into the batter’s box with two runners on and a chance to extend the Terps’ deficit even further.
Michigan’s second baseman turned on a fastball from reliever Sean Heine, sending it well over the wall in left field for a three-run homer and putting the game firmly out of reach for the Terps.
