'Ville baseball runs away with series

MILLERSVILLE, Pa. - Millersville baseball set a program record with nine stolen bases in the 7-3 game one win over Kutztown before totaling seven extra-base hits in a 14-3 game two rout that completed the three-game series sweep. 

Millersville (13-5, 3-0 PSAC East) totaled 24 hits and 12 steals in Tuesday's 16 innings. Sam Morris swiped four bases in the doubleheader, including three in game one. He also totaled four hits and hit his first career homer. Luke Trainer reached base in all six of his trips to the plate before an early exit with a big lead in game two. He went 3-for-3 and drew three walks in the doubleheader. 

GAME ONE
• Bren Taylor got the Marauders on the board with a three-run homer on an 0-2 pitch in the bottom of the third. Kutztown came back to tie the game with three runs in the fourth, but Millersville jumped back in front in the bottom of the inning when Tyler Wright singled in Jimmy Kirk. Trainer, Kirk and Chase Simmons added RBI hits in the fifth to push Millersville's lead to four. 
• Starter Jeff Taylor lasted three innings, giving up just two hits but walking four. Christian Wingard (2-0) tossed two innings in relief to earn the win. Kris Pirozzi entered in the sixth with the tying run on deck and went on to pitch two scoreless innings with four strikeouts. Kutztown put the leadoff runner on base in six consecutive innings and placed its first two runners on three times. Kutztown stranded 12 runners. 
• Morris and Trainer both had two hits, but the story of the game was Millersville's aggressiveness on the base paths. Six different Marauders stole at least one base with Morris' three and Bren Taylor's two leading the way. 

GAME TWO
• Millersville used 23 different players in the 11-run victory. Ten different Marauders recorded at least one hit. Jimmy Losh went 3-for-3, drew a walk and scored three runs. Thomas Caufield drove in three runs with a 2-for-6 game. Morris went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in the fourth that put Millersville up 11-4. John Seibert smashed a two-run homer in the seventh. 
• While the Marauders put 34 runners on base, Kutztown stranded 12 runners for the second game in a row, drawing 12 walks. Both teams used seven pitchers. Nate Young (2-0) was credited for the win, tossing 1 2/3 scoreless as the first pitcher out of the bullpen. 

NOTES
• Millersville has won eight of its last nine games. Millersville has also won 12 in a row against Kutztown, sweeping three consecutive season series. 
• Millersville has scored 10 or more runs six times this season. 

UP NEXT
• Millersville hosts Bluefield State for a three-game series, starting with a doubleheader Saturday at noon.
