Kansas State has a four-game winning streak after a hard-fought 2-1 win over Western Michigan on Sunday afternoon to complete a sweep of the three-game weekend series at Tointon.
In the fourth, the BatCats manufactured a run then got one the old-fashioned way as Zach Kokoska walked, stole second, moved to third on a groundout, and scored on a Dylan Phillips sacrifice fly. A two-out double by Daniel Carinci was cashed in when Terrence Spurlin singled, and K-State had a lead they’d never relinquish.
Connor McCullough turned in his second great start of the season, lasting 5
1⁄
3 innings and giving up a lone run in the sixth before departing. C-Mac struck out six, walking only one, and two of the three hits he allowed were in the sixth inning.
