BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- Texas Southern leadoff hitter Zach Welz began Saturday’s game with a line drive that bounced off Southern center fielder Lance Jones’ glove for a three-base error.
Moments later, the Tigers had a three-run lead before the Jaguars even had a chance to bat.
Southern responded with a run in the bottom of the first and kept fighting back, but the Jaguars never pulled even as TSU completed a three-game sweep with an 8-4 victory at Lee-Hines Field.
“Right away, we were in a really difficult situation,” Southern coach Roger Cador said.
The closest Southern came to getting even was with two outs in the bottom of the seventh. The Jaguars trailed 6-4 and had Marcus Tomlin on third when pinch hitter D.J. Wallace flied out to deep left field.
