Friday night’s 14-inning loss to 14th-ranked St. John’s was filled with blunders and blown opportunities by the Creighton Bluejays baseball team, but Saturday night turned out to be a different story as sophomore center fielder Clark Brinkman, sophomore shortstop Thomas Luevano, and senior left fielder Riley Landuyt drove in seven runs on three swings to help the Bluejays even up the weekend series with the Red Storm, and set up a rubber match a little over 14 hours after the final out was recorded in Saturday night’s 7-4 win.
“They got a couple balls down for once,” Creighton assistant coach Rich Wallace said of his team’s clutch hitting.
