Chris Alleyne’s bat helps carry Maryland baseball to 9-4 win over Ohio State

In the third inning, trailing 4-1 and two runners on base, first baseman Maxwell Costes stepped into the batter's box.

On a 1-0 count, Costes swung for the fences, making perfect contact with the ball for an absolute bomb that landed way beyond the fence. Everyone in Bob “Turtle” Smith Stadium knew the ball was gone the second it hit Costes’ bat, including Costes himself, who stared it down and flipped his bat before rounding the bases.

Runs came all over for the Terps in a 9-4 beatdown of Ohio State to pick up the series sweep, the first of the season, and improve to a winning record for the first time this season.
