Otterbein 4, Ohio Wesleyan 2

March 30, 2006

Senior shortstop Brandon Williams (Dublin/Coffman) smashed a 2-run homer to wipe out a 2-0 deficit, but Otterbein scratched out runs in the sixth and eighth innings to take a non-conference game on Thursday in Westerville.

The Cardinals took a 2-0 lead in the first inning. Charlie Edwards was hit by a pitch, stole second, took third on a fly ball by Ben Titus and scored on a single by Bobby Wright. Wright moved to second on Pat Connor's infield out and scored on Chris Martin's single.

Williams' 2-run shot in the third evened the score, also bringing home freshman catcher Ty Leavitt (Worthington/Thomas Worthington), who had drawn a one-out walk.

Wright doubled with 2 out in the sixth and scored on Martin's single to give the Cardinals a 3-2 lead, and Otterbein tacked on an insurance run in the eighth as Titus led off with a walk, Wright followed with a single, the runners moved up on a sacrifice, Martin was intentionally walked, and Jerry Tulga reached on an error by senior third baseman Sammy Hall (North Riverside, Ill./Nazareth Academy).

Sophomore lefthander Joey McDaniel (Dublin/Scioto) was the starting and losing pitcher for Ohio Wesleyan. He allowed 5 hits and 3 runs in 5.2 innings, striking out 2 and walking 2.
