RADFORD, Va. — On the strength of five home runs, the No. 18 Campbell offense proved too much to handle as the Radford baseball team fell to the visiting Fighting Camels by a 13-2 final on Friday evening at Carter Memorial Stadium in their Big South opener.
Runs were tough to come by for the Highlanders (7-15, 0-1 Big South), who were held to four hits as a team. Radford did strike for a pair in the seventh inning, as they drew three consecutive walks to loaded the bases. Third baseman
Ryan Gilmore plated
Peyton Henry with a groundout, while right fielder
Paul Moore came in to score on a wild pitch in the ensuing at-bat.
Shortstop
Sully Tibbs was on base twice, going 1-for-3 with a walk. Henry also drew a pair of bases on balls.
Cade Kuehler was the winning pitcher for Campbell (17-3, 4-0 Big South), while
Clay Clatterbaugh took the loss for Radford.
UP NEXT
Radford will look to regroup as they host Campbell in game two on Saturday. First pitch is scheduled for 4 p.m.
