Big Innings Too Much for MSU-Eagles Fall 16-3 to Austin Peay

Morehead, Ky. -- Austin Peay scored in bunches and downed Morehead State 16-3 in eight innings Tuesday night at Allen Field at Prefontaine Park.

Morehead State (12-34/ 2-19 OVC) dented the scoreboard in the first inning on left fielder Davis Germann's blast to deep left center field to take the early 2-0 lead.

Austin Peay (38-11/ 21-3 ASUN) responded in the second inning with a six-run outburst on four hits to take the lead.

MSU got one run back in the second when Griffin Olson singled, stole second and scored on an error.

Austin Peay added another four runs in the sixth inning, highlighted by home runs by center fielder John Bay and third baseman Ray Velazquez.

The Governors tacked on another six runs in the eighth inning, highlighted by Valazquez' second home run of the game.

Aaron Lewis (1-2) picked up the win for APSU; MSU's Josh Furtado (2-3) took the loss.

Morehead State will return to Allen Field Wednesday for their final non-conference game of the season when they host Bellarmine. First pitch is scheduled for 6:05. The game can be watched on ESPN+.
