#4 Muleriders stay hot, win tenth straight with DH sweep of SWOSU

WEATHERFORD, Okla. – #4 Southern Arkansas pushed across 17 runs on a dozen hits in Sunday's Great American Conference series opener at Southwestern Oklahoma State and in the second game, the Muleriders received yet another solid outing from freshman sensation Jeremy Adorno to take both ends of the league doubleheader from the SWOSU Athletic Complex. SAU (10-1, 5-0 GAC) won game one 17-5 and took game two 5-1. The Muleriders have now won ten straight.
 
Sophomore Santos Sosa, in his second career start, dispersed seven hits, absorbed five runs and fanned five in six innings of work in the series opener. Junior Maddux Solomon tossed the final frame of the run-rule contest and faced one over the minimum with one strikeout. Adorno delivered another significant outing as he scattered five hits in a complete game, seven-inning effort in game two that included 11 strikeouts to run his season total to 43.
 
Of the dozen base hits by SAU in game one, only two went for extra bases as junior Ty Manning legged out an inside-the-park home run in the fifth inning which made it 9-0 SAU and in the seventh, junior Brett McGee doubled home the Muleriders' final two runs. Ten singles, 11 walks and three hit-by-pitch helped SAU plate ten-plus runs for the sixth time this season.
 
Junior Riley Orr led SAU in the opener with a 3-for-3 effort with a walk that included four RBI and four runs scored. McGee, freshman Brandon Nicoll and senior Tucker Burton each collected two hits. All nine players in the batting order scored at least once and five delivered at least two RBI with McGee also recording four RBI.
 
SAU led 13-0 through six, before SWOSU plated five runs in the sixth to momentarily hold off the run-rule, but a two-run single from Orr and the aforementioned two-bagger by McGee in the seventh sent the Muleriders up 12 before Solomon closed out the contest.  
 
McGee opened up scoring in Sunday's second affair with a two-run blast out to right field in the third inning, added an RBI double in the fifth inning and the Muleriders pushed across runs four and five in the sixth inning without the benefit of a hit as Orr walked with the bases loaded and Sutton was beaned with the bases loaded for the frame's second tally.
 
The Muleriders and Bulldogs conclude the series at high noon on Monday in Weatherford. Live coverage links for game three are available at www.MuleriderAthletics.com.
