TROY, Ala. – Base on balls were prevalent in the Trojan's 10-5 loss to FGCU Tuesday night as Troy fell for the first time in 2023. Trojan pitching finished walking 10 batters, with the Eagles capitalizing, hitting three home runs and scoring four runs in the top of the ninth to beat Troy from Riddle-Pace Field.
A one-run ball game in the ninth quickly turned into a five-run lead for the visitors as a walk with the bases loaded and a throwing error scored three runs. A base hit added another, and the Trojans were unable to overcome the deficit.
