Re-Watch the Game.

HOOVER, Ala. (EMUEagles.com) -- The Eastern Michigan University baseball team got three hits from reigning Mid-American Conference Player of the Year Matt Kirk (Milford, Ohio-Milford-Cypress-Toledo), but it was not enough to lead the Eagles past Northern Kentucky University in the 2023 season debut for both teams. After EMU took a 1-0 lead after the first, the Norse came back to secure a 9-2 victory.

Graduate student Thomas House (Ross, Ohio-Ross) got the ball to start for Eastern Michigan (0-1, 0-0 MAC) and took the loss.
