OMAHA, Neb. — Omaha Baseball's bats remained mostly silent for the second night in a row, as visiting Oral Roberts exploded late to down the Mavericks 13-1 at Tal Anderson Field.
The Mavericks couldn't take advantage of a strong starting effort from sophomore pitcher
Tanner Foertsch, who allowed just one run on three hits over five innings before leaving with the game tied at 1-1.
Oral Roberts (20-12, 11-0) extended its lead in the Summit League standings over second-place Omaha (10-17, 6-5) heading into the series finale Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m. CT.
The league's top hitter,
Jackson Trout, homered to deep left off Golden Eagles starter and winning pitcher Nathan Love (3-1) to open the bottom of the fourth and tie the game at 1-1. But the Mavericks bullpen allowed 12 runs over the final four frames, and Omaha's bats were limited to four hits for the second straight night.
