Aces Baseball comes out swinging, slamming Xavier in Sunday's finale

CINCINNATI, Ohio - Facing being swept for the first time all season, the University of Evansville baseball team reignited at the plate and on the hill, rolling over Xavier, 10-2, Sunday at Hayden Field.

UE grabbed the early lead on highly-touted Major League draft prospect Conor Grammes, striking for a pair of runs in the third inning, as sophomore first baseman Tanner Craig ripped an RBI double to center, scoring junior right fielder Troy Beilsmith. Freshman second baseman Danny Borgstrom followed that up with a single to the gap in right-center, bringing in Craig from second, giving Evansville a 2-0 lead.
