A ninth-inning rally by the VMI baseball team fell short as James Madison University defeated the Keydets 9-5 Thursday at Veterans Memorial Park in non-conference action.
Trailing 9-3 heading into the ninth inning, the Keydets loaded the bases with no outs and Zac Morris singled to bring home JT Inskeep and cut the lead to 9-4. JMU went to the bullpen and reliever Lliam Grubbs induced a double play ball, although one Keydet scored on the play. A VMI lineout ended the game.
