@ERAUBaseball Takes Series from Lions with Saturday Split

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - The Embry-Riddle baseball team saw its 18-game winning streak against Florida Memorial come to an end on Saturday as the Lions downed ERAU 11-9 in the day's opener, however, the Eagles were able to salvage the series with a 5-2 win in the series finale. The Eagles (6-10) mounted a nine-run rally in the first game, but the Lions (5-14-1) scored four runs in the seventh inning to take the game. Quinn Bourque did the work on the mound in the series finale, getting the win as ERAU was able to down the Lions, 5-2.

Game 1 - FMU 11, ERAU 9 (7)
The Eagles found themselves down 7-0 after the top of the third inning in the day's first game, but ERAU scored nine unanswered runs to take a 9-7 lead over the visitors going into the final frame. FMU pushed across four runs in the seventh and held the Eagles scoreless in the bottom of the inning en route to the win.

Troy Naab was chased by the Lions in the third after giving up seven runs (six earned) on eight hits. But ERAU chipped away, getting a two-run homer from Jonathan Camp in the bottom of the third, followed by two more runs in the fifth, trimming the deficit to 7-4.

The sixth inning was all ERAU as Justin Franklin doubled in a run, followed by an error leading to a second Eagle run in the frame. Christopher Medina registered a sacrifice fly to knot the game at 7-7 before A.J. Mazzurco singled and Kyle Guttveg singled, each scoring a run, as ERAU took a 9-7 lead.

FMU put two men on before a sac bunt moved them both into scoring position, and back-to-back singles tied the game before an RBI single put FMU in front, followed by a sac fly, accounting for the 11-9 final.

Game 2- ERAU 5, FMU 2 (7)
The series finale belonged to Bourque as the freshman went six innings, allowing two runs on seven hits before Vincent Rosace nailed down his second save of the season with a scoreless seventh.
