The Anderson University baseball team dropped the third game of its three-game series with the University of Sewanee by a score of 8-1 on Sunday in Sewanee, Tenn.
The scoring started in the bottom half of the first inning when Sewanee (2-1) capitalized on a Raven fielding error scoring one.
Another run was scored by Sewanee in the third to make it a two-run ballgame. After the third inning, scoring was scarce from both sides until a grand slam from Sewanee made it a 6-0 game, the Tigers scored one more late in the inning. Another run would be added in the bottom of the eighth to make it a seven run game.
For the Ravens (1-2), freshman Jake Stank had two of their five hits and two stolen bases. The only run of the game for Anderson was on an RBI hit by a pitch in the top of the eighth; Logan Wagner was hit with the bases loaded which brought in Levi Brown. Jose Olivo threw three complete innings giving up only one earned run. Jacob Hoffman threw two complete innings and Cole Whitlock threw one inning, both giving up no runs.
"Baseball has a funny way of humbling you at times," Coach Mathew Bair said. "The game reveals the areas where you need to get better, both as individuals and collectively. [Sunday], We got humbled. Now it is up to us to own that responsibility and get to work to be our best. As a point of emphasis on the positive side, I was proud of our pitchers as a whole. They gave us a chance to win three games this weekend."
The Ravens play their next game at Grand Park in Westfield on Feb. 25 where they will face off against Otterbein University (0-0) at 4 p.m.
