Breds Complete OVC Sweep
The Breds completed their second series sweep of the season as they won all three games against UT Martin over the weekend. It was the first conference-series sweep since May 8-9, 2010 against Eastern Kentucky.
Offensive Doubleheader
The offense came through in a big way in the doubleheader against UT Martin as the Breds scored 26 runs on 34 hits. Nine of the hits went for extra bases as they collected six doubles, a triple and a pair of home runs.
Koz Hits For the Cycle
Mike Kozlowski entered rare company as he hit for the cycle in the middle game of the series against UT Martin. He completed the cycle in the seventh inning with a triple off the top of the fence in right center to plate the winning run. It was the first cycle for the Breds since Colton Moore on March 12, 2010 against Saint Louis.
Wheeler 1st Homer Grand
Dylan Wheeler made his first home run of the season count as he belted a grand slam to right field to tie the game and propel the Breds to a 15-13 victory.
Erasing Early Deficit
Murray State found itself down a touchdown in the third inning against UT Martin, but managed to battle all the way back to take the lead, and eventually win the game 15-13. In the second game of the doubleheader, the Breds quickly erased a 2-0 deficit to win 11-7
Paradossi's Second Leadoff Shot
Catcher Nick Paradossi hit his second leadoff home run of the season in the series opener against UT Martin. It was also his second home run of the week.
