There’s no place like home, and after 356 days, Baylor baseball returned to the banks of the Brazos for something other than an intersquad, shutting out Sam Houston State 4-0 Tuesday night.
“It’s great to get on the road versus an opponent, but there’s nothing like playing at home,” fifth-year senior backstop Andy Thomas said. “Your own box, your own batter’s eye, your field, your dugout — just a completely different feel and it was much needed for the entire team.”
It was a defensive battle as head coach Steve Rodriguez sent out his bullpen’s best for a midweek tuneup.
