Ethan Funk threw two innings of one-hit ball and Jamison Roach did the same over five innings of relief, striking out five, to combine for a shutout of the Whitko Wildcats and a 3-0 win. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The only other blemish for the two hurlers was a hit batsmen, otherwise the Wildcats did not come close to breaking through against the visiting Jets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
All three AC runs came in the top of the fourth. Lawson Deathe and Funk walked to start the inning, with Deathe stealing second during Funk’s at-bat. A couple of wild pitches allowed Deathe to score the game’s first run and led to Jacob Miller being walked, as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reece Hammond then drove home Funk with a productive RBI groundout and Hayden Bluhm scored Miller with the first hit of the game from either team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The only other hit in the contest for the victorious Jets was a leadoff single in the seventh by Carson Ross. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Jets will face fellow ACAC unbeaten Bluffton Tuesday in a key battle for the conference crown. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
