JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. – The Citadel baseball team was unable to overcome an early deficit and fell to ETSU 11-2 on Thursday evening.
Mike Deese scored the first run of the game in the top of the first with his fifth home run of the year, smacking the 1-2 pitch over the right field wall to give the Bulldogs (16-38, 6-16 SoCon) an early 1-0 lead. Dating back to last season, Deese went two-for-three with two home runs in his first three career at-bats against ETSU (24-28, 11-11 SoCon).
ETSU responded with a run of its own in the bottom of the frame, then plated five in the bottom of the second and three in the bottom of the third to take a 9-1 lead.
The Citadel got one back in the top of the fifth thanks to Barrett Charpia's fourth home run of the year. The junior now has 10 RBI this season.
Bret Hines finished the game two-for-four and in the process tallied his 100th career hit, joining fellow senior Stephen Windham who recorded his 100th base-knock May 11 against Winthrop. Jason Smith and Mike Deese also finished with two hits each.
Johnny Croley followed up his strong outing on the bump at No. 10 South Carolina with a career-high 3.2 innings against the Bucs, allowing just three hits while fanning three. The Bulldogs used five pitchers in the contest.
The series continues on Friday with an altered start time at 1 p.m. due to rain in the area. Live stats, video and audio will be available at CitadelSports.com for the game.
