Baseball’s Hot Hitting Continues in Dominating 22-5 Wounded Warrior Win Over Michigan State
Another balanced offensive attack coupled with a strong outing from Wanamaker leads Penn State to its fourth straight Big Ten win.
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – One day after tying a season-high with 18 runs, the Penn State baseball team carried the momentum into Saturday, notching five first-inning runs on its way to a 22-5 win over Michigan State in the first-annual Wounded Warrior Game at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park. The 40 combined runs over the first two games mark the most scored in consecutive Big Ten games in school history. The 22-run effort was also the most since Apr. 4, 2001 when the Lions bested Cornell 26-4. Penn State (19-23, 6-8 Big Ten) now looks for the series sweep on Sunday. Please note the new start time of 12:05 p.m.
Wearing specially designed camo jerseys, Penn State batted around three times on the afternoon to up its series total to six. The Nittany Lions batted around in the first inning after batting around in each of its last three at-bats on Friday night. At one point, the squad batted around six times in the span of nine innings bridging the two games.
