Baylor honored trio on Saturday’s Senior Day

THE RUNDOWN
WACO, Texas – Baylor (17-27, 2-14) fell 4-0 to Iowa State (27-18, 4-8) Saturday afternoon at Getterman Stadium.

Baylor got on the board in the bottom of the second inning. Taylor Ellis led things off with a single up the middle. She moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by Ana Watson. That brought Lou Gilbert to the plate who hit a slow roller back to the pitcher. The Iowa State first baseman couldn't field the throw, though, which allowed Ellis to score and Gilbert to advance all the way to third base.

Regan Green got the start in the circle for Senior Day. Kassidy Krupit came on in relief in the second inning and held the Cyclones scoreless while giving up three hits with a strikeout through 4.1 innings of work. Sidney Holman came in to close things down in the seventh inning and retired three-straight Iowa State batters.

HIGHLIGHTS

Saturday was Senior Day for Regan Green and Madi O'Neal. Green got the start in the circle for the Lady Bears. O'Neal was BU's leadoff batter.
Kassidy Krupit gave up only three hits through 4.1 innings of scoreless relief effort.
Krupit also led the way for Baylor at the plate as she went 2-for-3. Krupit now has six multi-hit games this season. Saturday's two-hit game marked Krupit's first multi-hit game since March 30 at Kansas.

STAT OF THE GAME
3 – Number of seniors Baylor honored with pitcher Regan Green, outfielder Madi O'Neal and manager Kyle Donohue.

TOP QUOTES
Glenn Moore on the game…
"We made some mistakes defensively today. I didn't think we made those yesterday, but we did today. They had that three-run inning that we couldn't recover run. We have to put up some offense. We had some opportunities again and just couldn't come up with the big hit. It's kind of funny, Coach Johnigan and I were sitting over there talking about how the same balls we've hit they've hit, but they've gotten productivity out of it that we've not."

WHAT'S NEXT
Baylor hosts LSU for a three-game series next weekend. Game 1 is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Friday before a doubleheader on Saturday starts at 5 p.m. Friday's game will be televised on FOX Sports Southwest Plus. Friday will be a blackout game with a T-shirt giveaway.
