Box Score GLENDALE, Wis. – MSOE baseball stepped out of conference play to take on D-I foe UW-Milwaukee at MSOE Raiders Stadium this afternoon in the first of two games against the Panthers in a seven-day span. Unfortunately, UWM scored early and often, dealing the Raiders a 12-4 loss on a soggy Wednesday afternoon.
RESULTS
*SIX INNINGS*
UW-Milwaukee – 12
MSOE RAIDERS – 4
HOW IT HAPPENED
- Game One
- UW-Milwaukee (13-17, 3-7 HL) jumped all over MSOE (13-13, 8-4 NACC) pitching starting in the first inning by putting four up on the board before the Red & White took their first at-bats.
- The Raiders got one back in the bottom half of the same inning when Micah Overley belted a ball over the right centerfield fence.
- The Panthers added another run in the second however before they plated five in the fourth. They added two more in the sixth to put a wrap on their offensive output.
- The Raiders plated a few more runs in the fourth behind a two-run homer from Collin Truitt and a John Cruz-Barcenas ground out but it wasn't enough in the eight-run loss.
- The game was called after six innings due to rain.
