ANN ARBOR, MI- A pair of late-inning homers were too much to overcome on Tuesday as Kent State fell to Michigan 6-4 in 11 innings on Tuesday in Ann Arbor.

A back-and-forth pitcher's duel picked up tempo late as both teams got clutch plays in the late stages on Tuesday night. Hunter Klotz scored in the eighth inning on a wild pitch after he had worked his way around the diamond, giving the Flashes a 3-2 lead. In the bottom of the inning Peyton Cariaco inherited a pair of runners in scoring position and one out, the lefty left them there after a strike out and ground out ended the threat.
