Central Michigan Clinches MAC West With 8-6 Victory

MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – Robert Greenman hit a three-run, walk-off home run to propel host Central Michigan to an 8-6 win over the Ball State baseball team Friday afternoon.

With the win, Central Michigan (29-25, 16-7 MAC) clinched the Mid-American Conference West Division crown and the No. 2 seed for next week's MAC Tournament.

Friday's game featured lots of late-inning fireworks. Ball State (29-26, 13-10) trailed 4-2 heading into the top of the eighth inning. The Cardinals loaded the bases with just one out in the eighth thanks to three walks.

CMU relief pitcher Colton Bradley got the second out with a strikeout.
