Appalachian State: Fall Ball Update

Appalachian State University baseball enters the final weekend of its fall practice season with its Black squad holding a 3-2 advantage over the Gold in the team’s annual best-of-seven Fall World Series. Yearlong bragging rights will be determined on the field this weekend with the final two games of the intrasquad duel, set for 1 p.m. Saturday and Sunday and Beaver Field at Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium (Sunday’s game will be played regardless of Saturday’s outcome). Both games are open to the public and admission is free.

The annual series has been a hotly contested, back-and-forth affair throughout. Games One and Two were dominated by ASU pitchers. In Game One, likely weekend-series starters Seth Grant and Ryan Arrowood squared off, producing a 0-0 score through four innings. However, the Gold turned a two-out walk by Hector Crespo and three-straight singles by Tyler Zupcic, Will Callaway and Jeremy Dowdy into a 3-0 advantage in the top of the sixth inning. Those three runs proved to be more than enough for Grant and relievers Zach Joyce and Adam Camara, who combined to no-hit the Black, walking two and striking out four over seven dominant innings. The no-hitter was the first in the annual fall series in ASU head coach Chris Pollard’s eight years with the program.
