Elon baseball splits final road series with Appalachian State
For the final time in the 2013 regular season, the Elon University baseball team went on the road, this time to Appalachian State University in Boone to take on the Mountaineers. While Sunday’s rubber match of the series was rained out, the Phoenix split the first two games of the series with Appalachian State in dropping game one 9-1 but escaping game two with a 10-8 victory behind five perfect inning from senior starting pitcher Kyle Webb. Scoreless through the first three and a half inning Friday in game one, the Mountaineers broke through in the bottom of the fourth against senior starting pitcher Spencer Medick when freshman second baseman Dillon Dobson grounded out to second base with the bases loaded. Appalachian State got another run in the fifth inning when senior outfielder Will Callaway hit a sacrifice fly to right field. Trailing 2-0, the wheels came off and the Mountaineers chased Medick from the game with a seven run sixth inning.
