Tulane baseball avoids sweep, beats Fullerton team missing suspended players

One big inning and stellar pitching by Keagan Gillies helped Tulane avoid another weekend sweep Sunday.

The Green Wave scored six runs with the help of two errors in the fourth inning and Gillies pitched seven innings of a 9-3 victory against Cal State Fullerton at Turchin Stadium.

Fullerton played Saturday without multiple starters for violating curfew late Saturday, a school spokesperson said, which caused the Titans to put junior closer Brett Conine in right field and end the game with three pitchers in the field.

The win for Tulane (6-5) prevented another weekend sweep after the Green Wave lost three games last weekend at Ole Miss.
