Blues Top Central Washington With Late-Inning Rally

ELLENSBURG, Wash. - Ben Parker posted three hits including a homerun and three RBI, Benjamin Seashore-Hobson picked up his third save and the Whitman College baseball team rallied to top Central Washington 7-5 in midweek non-conference action on Wednesday at CWU Baseball Field.

Nik Greb and Nick Teng both posted a pair of hits with Greb driving home a run and Teng scoring one. Ben Ortiz (1-0) picked up the win in an inning of relief work. Dustin Lennon-Jones pitched a perfect eighth inning as the setup man for Seashore-Hobson's save in the ninth.

Drew Richardson (0-2) was tagged with the loss for the Wildcats (8-20) and Trenton Love led at the plate with three hits and two runs scored.

Parker's first-inning homerun was all the offense the Blues (14-7) could muster until an eighth inning that saw them rally for six big runs. The bench and the bottom of the order produced at the plate in the late-inning rally. Michael Doyle drew a walk to start the inning and later scored on Teng's base hit. Then, after Nathan Wilson's (1 H, 1 R) base hit put runners at the corners, Greb and Kepa Supnet (1 H, 1 R, 1 RBI) tied the game each with RBI base hits.

With the game knotted at 5-5, Parker broke the tie and delivered a base hit to centerfield, driving home both Supnet and Mateus Conaway who had been inserted as a pinch runner in the inning. 

Whitman returns to Northwest Conference action this weekend at Pacific. The Blues and Boxers square off with a twinbill on Saturday, March 25 and a single game on Sunday, March 26.
