In brief
Dayton Daily News (Dayton, OH) April 25, 2012 COLLEGE BASEBALL WSU rallies in 9th to beat Dayton FAIRBORN — A Tristan Moore two-run single in the bottom of the ninth lifted Wright State (27-13) to a 7-6 win over Dayton at Nischwitz Stadium on Military Appreciation Night.
In the bottom of the ninth, Sam Picchiotti led off with a single up the middle, and Jake Hibberd followed by chopping a hit into left after faking a bunt. Zach Tanner then hit a grounder to third that looked to be a potential double play, but the Flyers were only able to force out Picchiotti at third.
A balk call moved both Hibberd and Tanner into scoring position and Moore delivered the game-winner, singling through the left side to plate both runners.
Moore’s first-inning triple was the 16th in his career, tying Phil Long (1993-96) for the most in WSU history. Hibberd hit his eighth home run in the fifth. Day-ton fell to 19-23.
