Metro Roundup: ISU baseball sweeps Racers

Staff Report

Murray, Ky. — Indiana State recorded its first three-game sweep of the 2007 college baseball season on Sunday, beating host Murray State 12-4.

Now 8-7 for the year, the Sycamores had 37 runs and 44 hits in the three games against the 3-14 Thoroughbreds.

ISU took the lead for good with four runs in the top of the fourth. Brett Siegmund led off with a double and scored on a single by Casey Martin, Martin stole second and scored on a hit by Dave Brumagin, Nick Ciolli reached on a fielder’s choice and came around on an error, a stolen base and Ryan Bond’s infield hit, and Bond scored following a single by Sean Osborne and a bunt by Ryan Strausborger.

An error, a wild pitch and an RBI single by Osborne made it 5-0 before Murray State rallied for three runs, but Adam Lindsay came on in relief to stop a seventh-inning rally and the Sycamores got seven more runs in the top of the ninth.

Skyler Pearson started the game and performed well, pitching five and two-thirds innings and allowing just a pair of hits and one run to earn his first career victory.

Offensively, ISU was paced by Brumagin, who was 4 for 5 with an RBI and a run scored. Bond record three hits with a pair of RBI and three runs scored, Ciolli drove in two runs and Osborne was 2 for 2.

Indiana State plays Tuesday at Miami of Ohio, then begins Missouri Valley Conference play at Wichita State next weekend.
