Â
AKRON, Ohio — The University of Akron baseball team returned to action in grand style on Sunday morning, battling the elements and a pesky Oakland team in a doubleheader at Skeeles Field at the Lee R. Jackson Athletics Complex.
Â
In game one, the teams battled through 14 innings as the Golden Grizzlies pulled out a 4-3 victory over the host Zips.
Â
Oakland jumped on the scoreboard first with a run in the first inning.
Â
Akron took the lead in the bottom of the third with two runs as RF Bryant Shellenbarger (Mount Vernon, Ohio) smacked a double to centerfield, scoring C Daniel Johnson (Gilbert, Ariz.) and 2B Bradley Goulet (Cottage Grove, Minn.).
Â
Oakland tied the game in the top of the sixth. The Golden Grizzlies added another run in the top of the seventh to take a 3-2 lead. UA responded with a run in the bottom of the eighth as CF Brenton Phillips (Albany, Ga.) singled, bringing in Goulet.
Â
The teams battled through five scoreless innings until Oakland scored the game-winning run in the top for the 14th inning.
Â
In game two, shortened to six innings due to darkness, Oakland captured a 1-0 win.
Â
The teams played five scoreless innings until Oakland went ahead 1-0 in the top of the sixth as PH Cam Post singled, driving home 2B Mario Camilletti.
Â
"I thought our pitching was pretty good, and I thought our defense was pretty good for the most part," said first-year head coach Chris Sabo. "The only question was how we were going to hit and if we were going to generate enough offense to beat teams. We'll keep adjusting the line-up, and find some guys who can give us consistent offense."
Â
On the day, Brenton led the Zips at the plate, batting .429 with three hits and an RBI. Goulet followed with two runs and two hits. The Zips utilized 10 pitchers. Junior righty Quinton Kujawa (Mount Vernon, Ill.) saw the most action, throwing 5.1 innings. Junior Jacob Wosinski (Ada, Mich.) had seven strikeouts in 3.2 innings to start game 2.
Â
Akron travels to Pepperdine for a three-game series on Feb. 21-23.
