Box Score<\/a><\/p>\n Game Two<\/p>\n Jamestown 9 Dickinson State 7<\/p>\n Box Score<\/a><\/p>\n UJ<\/a><\/p>\n Kendall Yackley<\/a> (JR\/Lynnwood, WA)’s two-run home run with one out in the bottom of the seventh inning gave the University of Jamestown baseball team a 9-7 victory over Dickinson State University and a sweep of Monday’s doubleheader.<\/p>\n The Jimmies trailed 7-6 going into their final at-bat, but Tanner Shepard<\/a> (SR\/Grand Rapids, MN) took the first pitch thrown by Alberto Nieto over the fence to tie the game at 7-7. With one out, Tayler Cullen<\/a> (SR\/Santa Rosa, Calif.) was hit by a pitch, and Yackley delivered with a home run on an 0-2 count for the winning runs.<\/p>\n Andrew Kupec<\/a> (SO\/Peoria, AZ) homered to lead off the bottom of the first, and Shepard hit a two-run shot to put UJ ahead 3-0 just six pitches into the game.<\/p>\n DSU rallied to tie the game at 3 in the top of the third but the lead was short-lived as Cullen singled in Ben Patton<\/a> (FR\/Bismarck, ND) for the go-ahead run.<\/p>\n The Blue Hawks put up four runs in the fifth to retake a 7-4 lead. Quade Peters<\/a> (FR\/West Fargo, ND) hit Jamestown’s third homer of the game in the bottom of the sixth to make it a one-run game.<\/p>\n Eric Kessler<\/a> (FR\/Dallas, OR) (1-0), the fourth Jimmie pitcher, worked the final two innings to earn the win. He allowed one hit and struck out two. Shepard was 3-for-4 with a pair of runs scored and three RBI, while Kupec was 2-for-4 and Cullen 2-for-3.<\/p>\n An eight run second-inning in game one gave Jamestown all the offense they would need in an 11-2 win in Monday’s opener.<\/p>\n After the Blue Hawks took a 1-0 lead after the top of the second, Cullen led off the bottom half with a home run to tie. Kupec singled in a pair of runs and came home on a passed ball, then Cullen doubled home two more runs. After a pitching change, Yackley doubled another two, making it 8-1 in favor of the Jimmies.<\/p>\n Kupec hit a three-run home run for insurance runs in the bottom of the fifth to make it 11-2. He finished the game 3-for-4 with five RBI and two runs scored. Cullen was 2-for-3 with three RBI and two runs scored.<\/p>\n Payson Mills<\/a> (JR\/Blackfoot, ID) (1-0) was the beneficiary of the run support, working five innings for the win. He gave up two runs on six hits, walking two and striking out three. Cameron Multer<\/a> (SO\/Greeley, CO) pitched two scoreless innnings in relief, striking out two.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Monday UJ Baseball At Jack Brown Stadium Game One Jamestown 11 Dickinson State 2 Box Score Game Two Jamestown 9 Dickinson State 7 Box Score UJ Kendall Yackley (JR\/Lynnwood, WA)’s two-run home run with one out in the bottom of the seventh inning gave the University of Jamestown baseball team […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":98363,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-236162","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236162","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=236162"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236162\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":236233,"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236162\/revisions\/236233"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/98363"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=236162"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=236162"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=236162"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
