Buckeyes crush Harvard 11-0
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. ? Behind a complete game shutout by Jaron Long and a two-home run, six-RBI day from Jacob Bosiokovic, the Ohio State baseball team topped Harvard, 11-0, Friday afternoon at TicketReturn.com Field. With the win, the Buckeyes improve to 7-4 on the season while Harvard falls to 1-4.
?It definitely helps to get the bats going early because you can pitch a lot more to the middle of the plate,? Long said. ?I tried to keep the ball down and our defense played great. It was a good win to start the trip on the right foot.?
Ohio State took the lead in the bottom of the second against Harvard starter Matt Doyle. Pat Porter led off the innings with a walk and stole second but consecutive groundouts by Brad Hallberg and Mike Carroll left Porter at third with two down. However, Bosiokovic followed with a two-run blast to left, the first long ball of his career, to give the Buckeyes a 2-0 lead after two innings of play.
