THE FLATS – No. 19 Georgia Tech baseball clinched the series on Saturday, downing Ohio State 5-2 on Saturday afternoon at Russ Chandler Stadium.
The Yellow Jackets (5-1) capitalized in the third inning on an outfield error to score three runs and take the lead and never looked back as sophomore RHP Cort Roedig (1-1) pitched a one-hit game over 6.0 innings, fanning six batters. Redshirt junior RHP Andy Archer got his second save of the year by punching out three over a no-hit final three frames.
Offensively, Tech was led by junior Colin Hall, who finished 2-for-4 with a double, while junior Michael Guldberg legged out an infield hit and an RBI, while drawing two hit-by-pitches. Junior Baron Radcliff rocketed the dropped fly ball in the third before also singling in a run in the fifth.
The Buckeyes’ (2-3) lone hit on Saturday came from Brent Todys in the first inning. Receiving the loss was LHP Seth Lonsway, (1-1) who allowed four runs (one earned) on three hits in 5.0 innings.
