Baseball Explodes for 16 Late-Inning Runs in 18-7 Triumph Over Michigan State
Seven Nittany Lions recorded three hits or more, led by Michael Glantz and Elliot Searer with four apiece.
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – What started off as an early Spartan lead quickly changed as Penn State turned a 6-2 deficit into a convincing 18-7 win over Michigan State (28-12, 7-6 Big Ten) on Friday evening at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park. The Nittany Lions (18-23, 5-8 Big Ten) batted around in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings, scoring 16 of their 18 runs in the process. Penn State has now scored 50 runs over its last three Big Ten wins against two of the four teams who were tied for first place entering the weekend. Game two of the series is Saturday at 2:05 p.m. and features the first annual Wounded Warrior Benefit Game.
“We just picked up where we left off in the last couple games at Ohio State,” said head coach Robbie Wine. “It seems like the confidence is there, the energy is there. Hopefully, we keep it going.”
