A walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth gave the Bearcats an 11-10 victory over the Bradley Braves Friday at Marge Schott Stadium.
Cincinnati jumped out to an early 5-0 lead in the first inning. Senior Mike Spina drove in the first run on a single to right field. Bradley cut the lead to three in the top of the second, but the Bearcats quickly increased their lead. Three straight walks loaded the bases, which brought Spina to the plate. Sophomore Nick Rohlfs scored on a wild pitch before Spina blasted a three-run homer giving UC a 9-2 lead. Junior Lance Durham increased the lead to 10-2 when he hit his first home run of the Bearcat career.
Bradley battled back to tie the game at 10 in the ninth inning, but a single through the left side of the infield by Sophomore Chris Peters gave the Bearcats the win.
The two meet again for a doubleheader Saturday beginning at 1pm at Marge Schott Stadium
