MUNCIE- The Kent State Golden Flashes baseball team fell to the Ball State Cardinals 1-2 in extra innings on Saturday afternoon.
Jacob Bean got the start on the mound for the Flashes and pitched a gem. The sophomore pitched seven innings of one run ball while striking out six Cardinals. Bean matched his career long with seven innings and a new career high in pitches thrown with 99.
Ball State would get on the scoreboard first with an RBI single in the bottom of the second.
Both teams would threaten with runners on base but clutch pitching and defense kept the score where it was.
