Toledo Falls to Youngstown State, 5-3

Youngstown, Ohio— The Toledo baseball team fell to Youngstown State, 5-3, in Youngstown on Wednesday.

The Penguins scored first, taking a 4-0 lead before the Rockets got a run on the scoreboard. UT did score twice in the sixth and once in the ninth, and had the go-ahead run at the plate multiple times in the final inning, but wasn't able to complete the comeback.

Freshman Darryn Davis was the lone Rocket with multiple hits, and sophomore Chris Meyers and freshman Thomas Eitniear drove in runs for the Midnight Blue and Gold. Senior Axel Bueter started the game on the mound, and threw 4.0 innings. Sophomore Bryce Davis added 2.1 innings in relief, and junior Austin Calopietro ended the game with 1.2 scoreless innings on the bump for UT.

Toledo will travel to Ohio this weekend to continue Mid-American Conference play.

How it Happened
  • Youngstown State started off the scoring with a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the first to take a 1-0 lead.
  • The Penguins extended their lead with two runs in the bottom of the third. After retiring the first two batters, UT allowed a pair of runs on an RBI single and a wild pitch to fall behind, 3-0.
  • An RBI single in the bottom of the fifth added another run to YSU's lead and made the score 4-0.
  • Toledo got a couple runs back in the top of the sixth. Meyers hustled out a triple to drive in the first run, then he scored on a ground ball to the second baseman.
  • Youngstown State extended its lead to 5-2 with an RBI single in the bottom of the seventh.
  • The Rockets had multiple promising offensive chances in the top of the ninth. UT loaded the bases with no outs, bringing the go-ahead run to the plate. One run would come in to score on a ground ball to second base, but that would be it for Toledo.
