TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – GAME 3 (
Box Score) Sunday saw Blue Mountain Christian Baseball sweep the opening SSAC series over Stillman 24-2, while also extending its winning streak to 10 games.
Topper pitching was almost unhittable over the weekend, and today was no different as Blue Mountain starter
Jackson Siler cut down the Stillman offense with a five-inning performance of just two hits with two Ks, and the BMCU offense initiated a seven-inning mercy rule.
The game was out of hand for the Tigers by the fourth inning, as the Toppers posted 18 runs in the first three innings, 12 in the third alone.
The Toppers destroyed the Stillman pitching staff, plating 18 earned runs and pounding out 17 hits.
Gavin Coles,
Josh Smith and
Austin Beech all had three hits for Blue Mountain, all driving in four runs and Coles scoring five times.
Reiley Tate drove in five runs for the Toppers and
Hayden Arant scored four times in the rout.
Bryland Skinner would also score four times as a pinch-runner.
BMCU (17-3, 3-0) is off to one of its best starts in program history and will next play a doubleheader Tuesday against Williams Baptist in non-conference with first pitch at 3 p.m. CT.
