Roginski's Big Day Gives Wabash A Doubleheader Sweep at OWU

Wabash crushed four home runs in two games against Ohio Wesleyan University Tuesday afternoon to earn a sweep on the road against the Battling Bishops. Sean Roginski's grand slam in game one provided a 13-8 victory for the Little Giants in the first game. His two home runs in game two sent Wabash to a 16-10 win in the North Coast Athletic Conference nightcap.
 
Wabash (15-14, 3-6 NCAC) pounded out 33 hits in the two games with 11 extra-base hits overall. Roginski hit .700 for the day, going 7-of-10 from the plate with two walks. He picked up a double and accounted for four runs scored and nine runs driven in to go with his three home runs. Roginski is the 18th Wabash player to hit two or more home runs in a single game. Roginski added seven hits to his career total, giving him 199 in 152 games. He ranks second in Wabash history for hits, trailing only Chris Deig with 206. Roginski is four doubles away from tying the Wabash record of 50 held by David Oliger. Roginski also moved into a tie for ninth in career RBI with 99 and is now third in career total bases with 288 after adding 17 in the doubleheader versus OWU. Roginski's ten total bases in game two for Wabash tied for the most in a single game by a Little Giants player.
 
The Little Giants took an early 2-0 lead in game one on a fielder's choice by Matthew Annee and a sacrifice fly off the bat of Andrew Jumonville. Wabash tacked on three more runs in the third when Jackson Blevins singled to score Jared Wolfe after a leadoff triple. Erich Lange drove in two runs with a single to put the Little Giants up 5-0.
 
Ohio Wesleyan (10-17, 3-7 NCAC) rallied for a run in the fourth then took the lead in the fifth with five runs to make it a 6-5 ballgame. Wabash exploded for six runs in the eighth inning, taking advantage of six hits and three OWU errors. The big blow in the inning came from Roginski, who smashed a grand slam over the left center field fence. The Little Giants added two more runs in the ninth inning on an RBI double by Blevins and a single by Roginski.
 
Zach Moffett earned his third win of the season in relief of Kevin O'Donnell. Moffett pitched 4-1/3 innings and allowed two runs on two hits and two walks with five strikeouts. Sean Smith started the game and also pitched 4-1/3 innings. He gave up five runs on seven hits and walked four batters. Smith struck out two.
 
Wabash jumped out to another early lead in game two, scoring six runs in the first inning and five more in the third. Roginski launched a three-run homer in the first inning followed by an RBI single by Canton Terry and a two-run home run by Lange, his third of the season. Wolfe single home two runs in the third inning with Annee driving in another run with his single to center.
 
Austin Simmers raced home with a run in the fourth inning to put Wabash up 12-3 after Ohio Wesleyan scored a run in the second and two in the third. Jumonville added an RBI on a ground out in the fifth to score Blevins from third after he opened the frame with a single for one of his six hits on the day. Roginski hit his fifth home run of the season with a solo shot in the seventh inning to put Wabash up 14-7. Lange scored on a wild pitch in the eighth innings and Annee added one more RBI in the ninth with a double to give the Little Giants the 16-8 lead. The Battling Bishops scored a pair in the bottom of the ninth before Parker Noll closed out the game by retiring two of the three batters he faced.
 
Starter Dylan Scheid earned the victory to improve to 2-3 for the season. The freshman pitched five innings, scattering 13 hits and two walks. He gave up seven runs and struck out three. Logan Butrum struck out three batters in his 1-1/3 innings of work, giving up one run on two hits with one walk. Eric Lakomek pitched two innings of one-hit baseball, walking two and surrendering two runs with one strikeout.
 
Blevins finished 6-of-11 at the plate for Wabash on the day and scored six runs. Lange drove in four runs with a 3-for-9 performance. Wolfe scored five times in both games for the Little Giants.
 
The Little Giants are back on the road Thursday evening for a single-inning non-conference game at Rose-Hulman beginning at 7 p.m.
