THE FLATS – A late charge by the Georgia Tech baseball hitters wouldn’t be enough as its miscues were too much to overcome in the 9-6 setback to Eastern Kentucky on Saturday afternoon at Mac Nease Baseball Park at Russ Chandler Stadium.
The Yellow Jackets (1-1) made two uncharacteristic errors and walked 11 batters in the tough outing, while the Colonels (1-1) used extended innings to their advantage to score and drive up pitch counts.
Leading the way offensively for Tech were three multi-hit Jackets.
Drew Compton finished the day 3-for-4 with a home run and two RBI, while
Luke Waddell finished 2-for-4 with one RBI.
