TECH BASEBALL TENNESSEE TECH FISHING Tech baseball holds on at Big win Kennesaw

By MIKE LEHMAN TTU Sports Information

KENNESAW, Ga. — Timely pitching, impressive defense and some clutch scoring proved enough for the Ten- nessee Tech baseball team to collect a mid-week, road vic- tory Wednesday evening, as the Golden Eagles held on for a 6-5 win at first-time op- ponent Ken- nesaw State. F i r s t - t i m e starters Nick Baseball Osborne and Mason Ward put together a fine pitcher’s duel early, with the Tech hurler holding the edge in most cate- gories. Osborne tossed five and third inning, baiting the Ken- nesaw bats into early hacks. He held the Owls to just two hits and one unearned run while striking three and walking just one before exiting with one out in the sixth. Ward tossed a solid game as well, lasting four and two thirds inning before limping off the field with what looked like a minor foot injury after attempt- ing to cover first base on a two- run, infield single by Alex Junior. The Tech outfielder hit a slow roller to the Kennesaw first baseman, but the speed of the redshirt-freshman proved too much for Ward to beat out. It was Tech (7-8) who scored first in the contest, using Ju- nior’s single to plate the first two runs of the night. After making an unbelievable, over- the-shoulder, diving catch in foul territory to end the fourth inning, sophomore Trevor Putzig laced a double down the left field line with one out in the top of the fifth.
