13 not an unlucky number for Mesa State baseball


Print Comment
For the third time in as many weeks, the Mesa State College baseball team ended a weekend with a series sweep.

Colorado Christian was the latest victim to be swallowed up in the midst of a winning streak that’s gone to 13 straight after Sunday’s 14-1 victory at Suplizio Field.

The Mavericks, now 8-0 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (17-6 overall), pounded out 14 hits in the game, which featured two home runs from Mike
Provencher and solo blasts from Andrew Martinez and Kyle Houge.

Mesa State put Colorado Christian in a 6-0 hole by the third inning by scoring three runs in the first, adding two more in the second and another tally in the third inning.

Provencher knocked in Mesa’s first run on a double down the left-field line; he scored on Chandler Herdt’s triple. Herdt scored the Mavericks’ third run of the inning on Houge’s RBI single.

Houge and Provencher had six hits and an equal number of RBIs between them in 10 at bats.

Starter T.J. Butch earned his second win of the year, allowing two hits in five innings with eight strikeouts. Four Mesa State pitchers — T.J. Stanstny, Andy Williams, Jason Fronczak and Brent Lamaster — each pitched an inning of relief.

The Mavericks are on the road for the next two weeks, traveling to Denver for a four-game set with Metro State March 14-16, then to CSU-Pueblo on March 20-22.
