Trevecca Nazarene University vs. Union University

(Jackson, TN) -- The Trevecca baseball team (23-12, 6-6) traveled to Jackson, TN and came out with two wins and a loss in the three game series against Union University. Game one was suspended due to rain in the top of the 8th inning with Trevecca Nazarene leading Union 10-4.

(Game 1) -- Trevecca scored five runs in the top of the second inning and three more runs, one per inning, over the next three innings before rain resulted as the only thing that seemed to be able to stop the Trojans. The game was temporarily postponed on Friday night and resumed Saturday morning with the Trojans leading 10-4. Trevecca added 2 more when the game resumed and took the victory 12-7. Keith Black improved to 3-3 on the season with the win while Justin Curtis batted 4 for 4 with three runs and three RBIs in the winning effort.

(Game 2) -- The second game of the weekend series opened with Trevecca grabbing a quick run in the third inning. The lead, however, was short lived as Union picked up three runs in the fourth inning. The Trojans battled back with two runs in the seventh to tie the score at 3-3 and send the game into extra innings. Four bonus innings later the Trojans finally added a run thanks to a game winning sacrifice fly off the bat of Billy Johnson. Sophomore Adam Duncan shut down the Bulldogs in the bottom half of the inning to claim his third victory of the season.

(Game 3) -- Having won both games in the series, the Trojans prepared for the third and final match of the weekend but only managed one run in the third inning as Union took the victory 3-1. B.J. Jenkins fell to 2-4 on the season but threw a complete game six inning performance giving up only three hits in the game.
