KU catcher Rob Thomson and third baseman John Glenn led Kansas in an offensive onslaught that was good enough to beat Missouri Western 12-8 yesterday at Quigley Field.
The game was a hitter's paradise as a frozen north wind blew straight out to center field. KU starter Bre Morris was able to get past Missouri Western's four-run first inning to record his first victory of the season
Morris pitched seven innings, giving up seven hits, four earned runs, two walks and striking out three.
Darin Morgan got the loss for the Griffons in his first decision of the season. Dale Cebert started for Missouri, going five innings, giving up seven hits, five earned runs, two walks and striking out six.
The two teams originally wert
scheduled to play a double-header,
but the coaches had to cancel the cold weather and packed schedules facing both teams.
MISSouri WESTERN OPENED up the game with four hits and four runs in the first inning, including two doubles in a row.
Kansas came right back with four runs of its own in the bottom half of the first, led by Glenn and designated hitter Dan Christie, both with doubles. Center fielder Hugh Stanfield opened up the inning with a single, right fielder John Hart followed with
a walk and Thomson beat out an infield grounder.
Glenn then hit his double, scoring three runs. He was brought home by Christie's double following a strike out by first baseman Phil Doherty. Left fielder Mike Ingram then struck out and shortstop Gary Lang grounded out to the third baseman to close out the inning.
MISSOURI WESTERN SCORED one run in the second inning, KU tied it up again in the third, then took the fourth inning with five runs. They never trailed again.
Christie opened up KU's fifth with a pop-up to the pitcher, Morgan. Ingram was then hit in the head on a pitched ball, Lang and second baseman Chuck Christenstein walked and Stanfield brought Ingram home with a sacrifice fly to left field. Hart then hit a double, scoring Lang and Christenston. Thomson followed with one of his two doubles, scoring Hart.
Thomson was then scored on a score by Giles. Timing was a single by pupup by Doftyre.
Missouri Western and Kansas both scored a run in the seventh. KU reliever Jeff Cox held Missouri Western scoreless in the eighth, but was tagged for a mound hit by Griffon first-baseman David Kingsley. The home run cleared the trees past the left field fence.
Lang and Glenn both had two errors for the Jayhawks. Both of Lang's errors were throwing errors, one to first and one on the start of a double play attempt to second.
John Hart, Kansas right fielder, slides into first base as Missouri Jayhawks defeated the Griffons 12-8 in yesterday's game at Quigley Western's. David Kingsley catches the throw to the bag. The Field.
