TYLER - The UT Tyler baseball team started the day Friday in 4th place in the ASC. But they were only 2.5 games behind first place Concordia and with a 3-game series against the Tornados on tap, that gap could be made up real fast.
In game 1 of their series, it was a pitchers duel for a few innings. But in the 4th, Concordia got the bats going in a big way. They scored 7 runs in that inning and that would be more than enough as they won game 1 7-1.
Game 2 was a different story. That game was ALL Patriots. It was relatively close until they put up 8 runs in the 8th inning and UT Tyler gets the 13-0 win.
The 3rd and final game of the series will be on Saturday...first pitch has been moved up to 11:00 AM.
