SJSU baseball (9-9, 4-2 MW) is looking to win its third straight game against the St. Louis Billikens (12-8, 0-0 A10) tomorrow morning.
The Spartans are fresh off a walk-off win during the 10th inning of Saturday’s battle. Thanks to redshirt third baseman Dalton Bowling, who singled to left field, scoring redshirt sophomore Jeriah Lewis for the victory.
Bowling is SJSU’s most feared hitter right now, leading the Spartans with a .333 batting average, 22 RBIs, and three home runs.
The Spartans pitching has been playing well this season. As a team, SJSU has a 4.23 ERA which ranks second in the Mountain West Conference only behind rival Fresno State.
For St. Louis, the power of sophomore outfielder Patrick Clohisy has been on notice. Clohisy leads the Billikens with seven home runs, 18 RBIs and a slugging percentage of .634.
The Billikens are leading the Atlantic 10 conference with a 4.34 ERA as they look to take advantage and shut down the Spartans on their final day in the bay.
If the Spartans get the win Sunday morning, it would be the first official series sweep of the season for the Spartans.
