TROY, Ala. – The home-standing Troy University Trojans used a little two-out magic and the strength of four home runs to outlast the visiting University of Evansville baseball team, 12-7, at Riddle-Pace Field in Troy, Alabama in the season-opener for both squads.
"It was a tough start to the weekend, but you have to credit the Troy hitters," said UE head coach Wes Carroll. "They scored a lot of runs with two outs, as we could not get out of innings.
"I thought that our offense showed some good signs, especially getting their starting pitcher's pitch count up early to get him out of the contest.
