\"\"UJ<\/a> The University of Jamestown baseball team opened up its fall season with a 7-5 loss to Mayville State (N.D.) University Wednesday night at Jack Brown Stadium.<\/p>\n

Down 7-4 with runners on first and second in the bottom of the sixth, the Jimmies appeared to tie the game on a three-run home run to right field by Tayler Cullen<\/a> (JR\/Santa Rosa, Calif.). However, the umpires ruled Cullen\u2019s blast stuck in the ivy on top of the wall, negating the homer and giving Cullen an RBI double.<\/p>\n

The Comets struck early, plating four runs in the top of the second. Skylar Forst homered and Michael Theisen singled in a run while two more runs scored on a Jimmie error.<\/p>\n

Adam Senden connected on a two-run homer in the top of the third, making it 6-0 in favor of Mayville State.<\/p>\n

Brian Rice<\/a> (JR\/Vancouver, WA) scored on an error in the bottom of the third for UJ\u2019s first run.<\/p>\n

Tanner Shepard<\/a> (JR\/Longville, MN) and Jared Bentley<\/a> (SR\/Washougal, WA) hit back-to-back home runs in the bottom of the fourth, cutting the Comets\u2019 lead to 6-3.<\/p>\n

Senden homered again leading off the fifth to give Mayville a three-run cushion, but the Jimmies answered in their next at-bat with a run-scoring single by Cullen.<\/p>\n

Cullen, Rice, and Grant Okawa<\/a> (SR\/Mississauga, ON) all had three hits for Jamestown (0-1). Senden finished 3-for-3 and three other Comets had multiple hits.<\/p>\n

Kensaku Akiya<\/a> (SR\/Kawasaki, Japan) took the loss, pitching four innings and allowing six runs (four earned) on eight hits. He walked one and struck out two. Jimmie relievers Andy Reed<\/a> (SR\/Woodinville, WA), Robert Evans<\/a> (SO\/Moses Lake, WA), and Austin Pesicka<\/a> (SR\/West Linn, OR) surrendered just one run on two hits over the final five innings.<\/p>\n
