HARRISONBURG, Va. – Texas State's Sam Hall limited the bats of James Madison baseball to four hits in a complete game as the Dukes fell, 8-1, on Saturday afternoon at Veterans Memorial Park.
Â
The Dukes dropped their fourth straight game and fell to 13-10, 1-4 Sun Belt. The Bobcats improved to 14-9, 4-1 Sun Belt.
Â
Sophomore Mike Mancini led the Dukes at the plate, going 2-for-4. On the mound, sophomore Max Kuhle got the start and went a career-high six innings. He struck out four and allowed four runs (two earned).
Â
How It Happened
First Inning
Texas State scratched a run across without recording a hit, getting a pair of base runners on from walks, moving over on a passed ball and then scoring on a sacrifice fly.
Â
Third Inning
Aaron Lugo hit a solo shot to give Texas State a 2-0 lead.
Â
Fourth Inning
Back-to-back one-out doubles scored a run for the Bobcats before adding a second run to make it 4-0 on a throwing error that would've ended the inning.
Â
Fifth Inning
JMU got on the board on a Jason Schiavone double, as freshman Kyle Langley drew a walk ahead of Schiavone and scored all the way from first to make it 4-1.
Â
Seventh Inning
The Bobcats loaded the bases with no outs and proceeded to score four runs on a two-run double, a single and a sacrifice fly to take an 8-1 lead.
