Herd Baseball Falls in Series Finale at College of Charleston

Box Score | Championship Fund

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – The Marshall University Baseball team (0-4) dropped the series finale, 8-5, to the College of Charleston Cougars (4-0).

"It wasn't the weekend we were looking for from a win-loss standpoint," Herd baseball head coach Greg Beals said after the series finale. "We learned a lot. It's really important for playing winning baseball that we play cleaner. We had too many free bases. We have to play cleaner defense and take care of the baseball better."

Gio Ferraro and Caden Kaiser each had big days at the plate. Kaiser went 3-for-5 at the dish with a trio of singles as Ferraro collected a base knock and a double in five at-bats with both driving in a pair of runs.

The duo combined to tie the game, 5-5, in top of the sixth with a one-out, two-run single to center by Kaiser and a two-out one, bagger to left by Ferraro.

The top four batters in The Herd lineup, Ferraro and Kaiser along with Tre Hondras and Owen Ayers, combined for seven of the team's 10 hits.

The Cougars answered with a run in each of the bottom half of the sixth, seventh and eighth innings to close out the ballgame.
