MORNINGSIDE HEIGHTS (June 5, 2013) - Returning to Morningside Heights for the first time in years, Ohio State dismantled ABC-TV by a score of 13-9 to claim their 4th victory of the season. The win puts the Buckeyes in the middle of the pack as they head down the stretch for the final three games.
OSU got off to a fast start in the top of the 1st inning
when JT Ferrera and Carly Klingensmith laced singles to start things off.
Brian Keatts cleared the bases with a 3-run home run to give the Bucks a
3-0 lead. ABC managed to tie the game in
the bottom half of the frame.
The Bucks took the lead for good in the third inning. With
one out, Jimmy Klingensmith stroked a double and scored when Evan Binder lined
an RBI single. Jon Graham reached base when the center fielder couldn't
handle his fly ball. The bases were loaded after Andrew Vannata drew a
walk. Binder score on a nicely placed
ground ball by Denise Sluterbeck when the catcher could not find home plate on
the force play.
Holding a 5-3 lead heading into the 4th, OSU began pouring
it on. Ferrera doubled to start the inning and took third on another sharp
single by Carly. Keatts followed with an RBI single and Jimmy with an RBI
double. Binder then pulled off the rare 2 RBI sac fly why his fly out to
right field was so deep it allowed 2 runners to score. OSU held a 9-3
lead after four innings of play.
The Bucks were back at it in the 5th. Kevin Ma
led off the inning with a single. Ferrera hit a one out double and was
then thrown out at third on an RBI single by Carly. Keatts then hit a
deep ball to right center just off the fielder's glove for a two run homer.
Jimmy made hit back-to-back jacks by absolutely crushing a home run to
left field, giving OSU a commanding 13-3 lead.
Despite stellar play by Carly at third base and a solid effort by
Amanda-the-sub at second, the Bucks got a little careless in the final two
innings before closing out a 13-9 win. Ohio State has a big one next week
as they take on Deloitte in Central Park.
