Blue Raiders come up short in extras

BOCA RATON, Fla. – The Blue Raiders (18-35, 11-17) lost a heart breaker in extra innings, losing 5-4 to FAU (35-18, 20-8) on Thursday night in Boca Raton.

FAU had the tying run at second base with two outs in the bottom of the 11th inning when a ground ball deep in the hole between third base and shortstop was fielded by Christian. Christian made the throw to first base that was just a tad late, while the runner at second base never slowed down around third and scored the winning run on a play at the plate.
