COLUMBIA, KY – The Lindsey Wilson baseball team swept the three-game weekend series with a pair of wins on Saturday, March 28, 2015, against visiting Pikeville (KY) at Egnew Park.



With their three-game sweep of the Bears (12-15, 0-8 Mid-South Conference) this weekend, the Blue Raiders (21-11, 7-2 MSC) extended their current winning streak to a season-best six games.

During the opener, Lindsey Wilson trailed throughout the game until the final pitch. With the score knotted up at 6-6 in the bottom of the 14th inning, Alex Bautista lofted a walk-off, three-run home run over the left field fence to cap a 9-6 victory.

After Chris Erker set down the Bears in one-two-three fashion during the top of 14th, back-to-back singles by Brandon Munoz and Nazario gave Lindsey Wilson two runners on base with no outs.

After going 0-for-5 to start the day, Bautista hit a first-pitch homer off Logan Sales to end game one.

The nightcap proved to lack the suspense of game one as the Blue Raiders won, 22-1. Lindsey Wilson finished with 18 base hits, while game two starter Scott Sebald (6-1) scattered seven hits over six innings pitched. He allowed one earned run and struck out 10 batters with zero walks.

Bautista drove in six runs, while Kory Weeks went 2-for-4 with three RBI and three runs scored.
