Baseball's Bats Come Alive in Doubleheader Split with Aquinas

Zane Mullins opens game two with grand slam.

TOLEDO, Ohio (LourdesAthletics.com) – The Lourdes University baseball team split a pair of Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference matchups against Aquinas College on Saturday at Mercy Field, rallying for a 15-8 victory in game two after trailing 6-2 in the first. 

Game 1: Aquinas 6, Lourdes 2

Aquinas took control early and limited Lourdes' offense to two late runs, securing the win in the opener.

The Saints capitalized on a Lourdes error in the second inning to bring in the game's first run before adding another on an RBI single. Aquinas extended its lead in the third with an RBI single before delivering the decisive blow in the fifth—a three-run homer to make it 6-0.

Lourdes got on the scoreboard in the sixth when Jase Kennedy grounded out to third, allowing Joel Suraganan to score. The Gray Wolves added another in the seventh on an RBI double from A.J. Brinson, but the rally fell short.

Landen Vance (0-4) took the loss, allowing six runs on eight hits over 5.0 innings while striking out seven. Riley McKinnon and Will Brose each tossed a scoreless inning in relief. Offensively, Brinson led Lourdes with two hits, including a double.

Game 2: Aquinas 8, Lourdes 15

The Gray Wolves offense erupted for a season-high 15 runs on 17 hits en route to securing their third win of the season, defeating Aquinas 15-8 in game two of Saturday's doubleheader at Mercy Field.

Zane Mullins set the tone early, launching a grand slam in the bottom of the first to give Lourdes a 4-0 lead. The Saints responded with three runs in the second, but the Gray Wolves kept up the offensive pressure, adding two more in the bottom half of the inning.

Lourdes extended its lead to 9-4 after three innings, highlighted by Nick DiGennaro's two-run single and Caleb Edwards-Dugan's RBI double. After Aquinas added a run in the fourth, the Gray Wolves pulled away in the late innings. A.J. Brinson tripled home a run in the seventh, and DiGennaro followed with a two-run homer to left field.

The Gray Wolves tacked on two more in the eighth before closing out the victory. Joel Suraganan had a four-hit performance, scoring four times and driving in three runs, while Jackson Kennedy and Alex Dupree each tallied multi-hit games.

Austin Nuhfer (1-1) earned the win, working four innings with five strikeouts. Ryan Butler tossed three scoreless innings of relief, and Kaeden Granger closed out the game in the ninth.
