From Emory University Athletics
Freshman Michael Edelman's walk off single in the bottom of the ninth capped off the Emory University Baseball program's 6-5 come-from-behind win over the Berry College Vikings Tuesday afternoon at Chappell Park in Atlanta, GA.
The win snapped a six game losing skid for the Eagles as they improved to 5-9 overall while the Vikings saw their five-game winning streak halted as they dropped to 12-5.
Edelman and junior NJ Kim recorded back-to-back two out, run scoring singles to erase a one-run deficit in the home half of the ninth inning. Sophomore Christopher Stern led off the frame with a single before senior Bubby Terp and junior Eric Terry were sent down on strikes. Senior Nick Chambers kept the inning alive with base knock, moving pinch-runner Ryan Adelman to second. Kim stepped to the plate as a pinch-hitter for sophomore David Shore and delivered a single up the middle to bring home Adelman. After a pitching change for the Vikings, Edelman deposited the game-winning hit back up the middle, scoring Chambers with the winning run.
Junior Charlie Redovian earned his first career win as he pitched 2.2 perfect innings in relief with a pair of strikeouts. Freshman Jack Moore started the ballgame, allowing four runs in five innings with two strikeouts.
