The University of Evansville baseball team, coming off a three game sweep of Western Illinois, goes for it’s fourth straight win Wednesday afternoon against Bowling Green State University. First pitch UE’s Braun Stadium has been moved up to 3 pm due to inclement weather.
The Aces will send freshman Jace Burke out to the hill for the first collegiate start of his career. Burke went two innings, striking out three batters in his first collegiate appearance last Sunday, a two inning relief outing in the series finale against Western Illinois.
At the plate, sophomore infielder Troy Beilsmith continued his red-hot start to the 2018 campaign this past weekend, and is currently leading the Missouri Valley Conference in slugging percentage at an eye-popping .852 clip, while registering in the league’s top ten in batting with a team-leading .407 average.
The Falcons come into Braun Stadium with a record of 3-9, having lost two straight to Canisius and Campbell University.
