Key Stats
- Junior Nathan Woods was serviceable on the mound in the starting effort. He scattered five hits and allowed only one unearned run with one strikeout and one walk.
- Both of Baylor's scoring innings were aided by errors in the field.
- Baylor broke a 1-1 tie with four runs in the bottom of the eighth, aided by a pair of errors.
- The Colonials had three hits on the afternoon by Isaiah Pasteur, Mark Osis (double) and Colin Brophy
- Osis doubled with two outs in the top of the ninth but the rally was cut short on a game-ending fly out.
Scoring - Bottom 4: A leadoff single followed by a throwing error started the inning and a RBI single followed (Baylor 1, GW 0).
- Top 6: Batting with the bases loaded, junior Robbie Metz drove in the tying run a fielder's choice RBI (GW 1, Baylor 1).
- Bottom 8: Baylor loaded the bases on an error and two walks. A two-run single broke the tie ahead of a fielder's choice RBI and a run-scoring error later in the inning (Baylor 5, GW 1).
Up Next - GW wraps its spring break trip on Tuesday in Dallas when it faces Minnesota in a neutral-site game (1 p.m. CT).
