Bronchos Even Series At Pitt With 6-1 Win Saturday

Central Oklahoma And Pittsburg State Will Play Sunday At 12 p.m. In MIAA Series Rubber Match

PITTSBURG, Kan. – Central Oklahoma evened its MIAA series with Pittsburg State Saturday, taking a 6-1 victory in Game 2 of the three-game set.
 
UCO improved to 23-6 on the season with the win and 10-5 in the MIAA. Pitt State is 19-9 overall and also 10-5 in league play. The two schools are tied for third in the MIAA standings.
 
Game 3 is scheduled for 12 p.m. Sunday.
 
Brady Gilmore had a big start for the Bronchos and picked up the win after six dominant innings of work. The junior right-hander allowed just two hits and struck out seven batters. Chase Yarger picked up a three-inning save with his relief performance. The redshirt freshman right-hander struck out two and only allowed one hit.
 
UCO got a 2-0 lead in the fourth inning thanks to an RBI groundout by Orlando Gonzalez that scored Kaleb Glass, and an RBI single to right field from Haden O'Toole that scored Shea Morrison. Glass had been hit by a pitch and Morrison drew a walk.
 
The Bronchos made it 4-0 in the fifth and on one swing of the bat. Ty Hammack hit a one-out double before Carson Carpenter turned on an 0-1 pitch and drilled it over the fence in right field for his team-leading 10th home run of the season.
 
In the sixth, Morrison led off with a single before Wyatt Gray belted a two-run home run out to left field that gave UCO a 6-1 lead in the game.
 
The Bronchos had just seven hits in the game, with Gray's two leading the way. Hammack hit a double, Carpenter and Gray hit homers, and Morrison, O'Toole, and Justin Santoyo all had single base knocks.
