Stars post 10-0 romp over Bacone

Second-ranked OCU score 10 runs for third consecutive game

OKLAHOMA CITY – Oklahoma City University routed Bacone 10-0 on Thursday at Jim Wade Stadium.
Jared Baker capped the contest by launching a grand slam past the right-field wall. The Stars, ranked No. 2 in NAIA baseball, improved to 33-4, 10-0 in the Sooner Athletic Conference.
Cory Linn pounded a solo blast over the right-center field wall in the sixth inning for Oklahoma City. The Stars extended their winning streak to 14 games, reached double figures in runs for the 21st time and piled up double-digit hits for the 28th game this year.
Baker poked an RBI single to right to provide OCU its first run of the night in the fifth. Shaun Corso and Garrett Foster smacked run-scoring base hits in the seventh to put the Stars ahead 5-0.
Joe Lytle drew a bases-loaded walk in the eighth for a 6-0 Stars advantage in the eighth.
Baker, a senior from Edmond, Okla., posted a 4-for-5 night with his 13th homer of the year, scoring twice and driving in five runs. Baker crushed a double into left in the first inning for his 75th career double, leaving him two doubles shy of tying Kirk Walker's OCU record.
Linn, a senior from Moore, Okla., went 2-for-4 with his 11th homer of the season, and Garrett Foster, a junior from Ardmore, Okla., was 2-for-4 with two runs driven in and a stolen base for OCU. Skyler Bean, a senior from Garland, Texas, scored twice, doubled and swiped a base.
Craig Knoche collected his team-high seventh victory of the season. Knoche, a junior right-hander from Tempe, Ariz., entered the game in fifth and pitched 3.2 innings. Knoche struck out four while allowing two hits and a walk. Anthony Rosati, a senior righty from Copiague, N.Y., worked four hitless innings and fanned five in his first start of the season for OCU. Hunter Aguirre, a junior lefty from Oklahoma City, recorded the final out against Bacone.
The Stars complete the series against Bacone in a noon doubleheader Saturday in Muskogee, Okla.
