Miami Pulls Away Late in Win Over Mountaineers

CORAL GABLES, Fla. — Appalachian State Baseball followed its trip-starting road win at FAU with a 6-1 loss against Miami at Alex Rodriguez Park on Wednesday night.

Miami's Jordan Lala led off the bottom of the first inning by pulling a home run to right, and the Mountaineers (4-7) cut their deficit to 3-1 with a sixth-inning run on Phillip Cole's RBI groundout, but a two-out throwing error in the bottom of the sixth allowed the Hurricanes (10-2) to double their lead to a 5-1 advantage.

Freshman second baseman Luke Drumheller extended his hitting streak to nine games with a 2-for-4 night in which he scored App State's lone run, and Kendall McGowan also went 2-for-4 at the plate.
