RUSTON, La. – The Louisiana Tech baseball team wrapped up its first home series of 2018, dropping a 5-2 decision to the visiting SIU-Edwardsville Cougars on a rainy Sunday morning from J.C. Love Field.
SIUE (2-4) strung together its best offensive output of the series, notching five runs on seven hits, while drawing five walks. Meanwhile, the Tech (5-3) offense was stymied by SIUE starter Kenny Serwa (1-0) who went six innings, giving up just two hits and no runs.
Tech starter Logan Bailey matched Serwa pitch-for-pitch, tossing six shutout innings himself, while striking out six and walking one.
