The Kent State baseball started Tuesday’s game at Wright State in unfamiliar territory, down, 2-0, after the first inning in an opposing stadium against a team they had not played since March 26, 2014.

Kent State (28-13, 13-5 Mid-American Conference) quickly realized Wright State (29-13, 16-5 Horizon League) came to play. Not only did the Raiders grab the early lead off two singles and an error, they also held the Flashes scoreless through the first inning, a feat that few teams have accomplished recently.

Kent State responded in the top of the second as they scored four two-out runs.
