  • Sorry, folks, for missing the first series of the year, I had a pretty traumatic situation with my family.

    So.....

    The Buckeyes went 3-0-1 (yes, a tie) in Vero Beach. They defeated Toledo, Pittsburgh and Niagra and then tied Toledo.
     
    Bucks defeat Rockets in opening game of the season 7-1

    COLUMBUS, Ohio - It was a great opening day for the Ohio State baseball team. The Buckeyes (1-0) launched three home runs on 11 hits, while junior left-handed pitcher Tanner Tully tossed six scoreless frames in a 7-1 win over in-state opponent Toledo (0-1) at the Inaugural Historic Dodgertown Classic Friday afternoon at Holman Stadium in Vero Beach, Fla. The Buckeyes have won 22-consecutive games vs. the Rockets, including a 5-0 mark under sixth-year head coach Greg Beals.

    "It was great to answer the bell like we did against another team," Beals said. "We played very clean baseball. We allowed just one walk and committed no errors and had some big hits. I'm happy with our opening performance today."

    Buckeyes stage late inning comeback to defeat Panthers

    VERO BEACH, Fla. - In a day that lasted more than 11 hours, the Ohio State baseball team twice rallied from multi-run deficits to improve to 3-0 at the Inaugural Historic Dodgertown Classic in Vero Beach, Fla. The Buckeyes claimed a 10-7 walk-off win vs. Niagara in game one before finishing with an 11-8 victory over Pitt in a 13-inning marathon game two that lasted four hours in 54 minutes at legendary Holman Stadium.

    "Today wasn't clean but it's a great day with two hard-fought victories," head coach Greg Beals said.

    Redshirt junior Jacob Bosiokovic had a monster day at the plate for the Scarlet and Gray, batting .400 with four runs scored, two home runs, including a walk-off three-run shot in game one, and six RBI with a walk and hit by pitch. In all, the Buckeye lineup registered 20 hits, while the OSU pitching staff notched 30 strikeouts vs. opponent hitters.

    Bucks and Rockets end in tie

    VERO BEACH, Fla. - The Ohio State baseball team posted an undefeated opening weekend record Sunday as the Buckeyes finished with a 5-5 tie in nine innings against Toledo on Field No. 2 in Historic Dodgertown. The game ended in a draw due to travel restrictions for both schools. Ohio State is now 3-0-1 on the year, while Toledo moves to 0-3-1 in 2016.

    Ohio State chalked up three runs in the top of the first vs. UT starting pitcher Kyle Slack. Junior left fielder Ronnie Dawson knocked an opposite field double to left center to plate both junior center fielder Troy Montgomery and redshirt junior right fielder Jacob Bosiokovic. Montgomery was hit by a pitch to start, while Bosiokovic walked. Freshman Brady Cherry pushed it to three runs with a sacrifice fly.
