Box Score
Case Reserve 28, Ohio Wesleyan 3

Sophomore outfielder Colton Moone (South Vienna/Northeastern) singled home a run to cap a 3-run first inning, but 18th-/22nd-ranked Case Reserve erupted for 13 runs in the third inning and went on to a non-conference win over Ohio Wesleyan on Sunday at Littick Field.

The Spartans jumped to a 6-0 lead in the first inning, opening the game with singles by Logan Andreyko and Jack Anderson and a home run by James Powers.  Dane Camphausen hit a solo shot later in the inning, and Nate Arterburn added a 2-run single.

Ohio Wesleyan answered in the bottom of the first as fifth-year shortstop D.J. Neff (Grove City), sophomore outfielder Matt Spencer (Hilliard/Darby), and sophomore catcher Alex Snyder (Massillon/Jackson) walked to load the bases.  Sophomore first baseman Zane Vitense (Maple Grove, Minn.) plated Neff with a fielder's choice and Spencer scored on a wild pitch before Moone singled up the middle to score Vitense.

CWRU scored 4 runs in the second, highlighted by a home run from Franco Alonso, and followed with 13 runs in the third, with Tyler Stillson belting a grand slam and a 2-run single during the inning.

Moone was 2-for-3 for the Bishops.  Senior righthander Josh Ferreira (Raynham, Mass./Portsmouth Abbey (R.I.)) was the starting and losing pitcher for Ohio Wesleyan.
