NATCHITOCHES, La. (2/24/17) – The Arkansas State baseball team got four scoreless innings out of the bullpen from Tanner Kirby and Joe Schrimpf knocked in two runs as A-State held on for a 3-2 victory Friday night at Brown-Stroud Field in Natchitoches, La.
The game was tied 2-2 in the top of the fifth with two outs when Schrimpf stepped up to the plate and hit a hard ground ball that deflected off the glove of a diving Northwestern State (2-2) third baseman Matthew Alford into left field to score Derek Birginske, who led off the inning with a single, for a 3-2 edge.
