LAFAYETTE, Louisiana – UL Lafayette used small ball and the long ball to defeat Troy 6-2 at M.L. Tigue Moore Field on Saturday. With the win, the Ragin' Cajuns claim the series from the Trojans.
Â
UL Lafayette (9-5, 2-0) tied the game at 2-2 in the fifth on a squeeze bunt. The Cajuns would score the go-ahead run later in the inning. In the sixth, Dylan Butler launched a 2-1 offspeed pitch from reliever Marc Skinner over the wall in left field to give ULL the four run lead.
Â
After UL Lafayette scored in the bottom of the first, Troy (7-7, 0-2) responded quickly. Trevin Hall tripled to start the second and scored on a ground ball from David Hall. The Trojans took the lead in the third when Logan Hill laced a two-out single up the middle scoring Clay Holcomb. Holcomb walked to lead off the game and has now reached base in 28 of his last 30 games.
Â
Troy could manage just three hits in the game as Will Bacon (1-1) came on in relief of starter Greg Milhorn and pitched five hitless innings.
Â
Grant Bennett (2-1) was saddled with his first loss after allowing five runs on six hits in 5 1/3 innings. Skinner pitched the final 2 2/3 innings and was charged with one run on two hits.
Â
Troy and UL Lafayette will play the final game of the three-game series at 1 p.m. on Sunday. The game will air on WTBF 94.7 FM and be streamed live on TroyTrojans.com.
