MONTGOMERY, Ala. – Arkansas State scored three runs in the top of the ninth inning to quash a Troy rally and walk away with a 9-6 victory Friday afternoon in the Sun Belt Conference Baseball Tournament opener for both teams at Riverwalk Stadium.
Troy (27-25) rallied from a 6-0 deficit after two-and-a-half innings of play capped by Caleb Bartolero’s game-tying, two-out single in the bottom of the eighth inning. However, Arkansas State (20-30) loaded the bases on a single, double and intentional walk in the top of the ninth before Sky-Lar Culver hit a bases-clearing double into the gap in right-center field.

How It Happened:
After Drew Frederic led off the first inning with a well-hit ground-rule double to left field, Caleb Bartolero got the Trojans on the board with an RBI single to the left side. Logan Cerny put Troy up 2-0, scoring off of a passed ball. Clay Stearns put two more runs across off of an error by Jonathan Brandon, making it a 4-0 lead before the first inning came to an end.
