The Eastern Michigan University baseball team won its home opener against Bowling Green State University, 5-4, behind a power performance from freshman pitcher Davis Feldman Friday afternoon in Ypsilanti.
Feldman went eight innings without an earned run, allowed only five hits and recorded six strikeouts, which ties his career high. Feldman was taken out in the ninth inning for right-hander Sam Delaplane, who got the save.
“Coming in, last start, I struggled in the beginning, made adjustments to my mechanics and ended that start pretty well," Feldman said. “Today, I came in trying to build off the end of my last start and I thought I did pretty well throughout the whole game.
