Redhawks Get Sawyers His 100th Career Win with 6-5 Victory Over Jacksonville State

CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. – Tyler Wilber went 3-for-5 and knocked in the go-ahead run on a two-RBI single in the sixth inning to lead Southeast Missouri (12-12, 6-4) to a 6-5 come-from-behind win over Ohio Valley Conference co-leader Jacksonville State (11-13, 4-3) Friday night.
Wilber's team-high 10th multiple-hit game helped get Andy Sawyers his 100th win as SEMO's head coach.
Trailing, 5-3, after five-and-a-half innings, SEMO scored three runs in the bottom of the sixth to edge the Gamecocks. Danny Wright led things off with a walk, Wade Stauss hit an infield single and Lincoln Andrews reached on an error to quickly load the bases.
With one out, Jevon Mason singled to left and Wright scored. After JSU made a pitching change, Wilber greeted Kyle Luigs with a two-out single that brought home Stauss and pinch-runner Brett Graber giving the Redhawks a 6-5 advantage.
A drama-filled top of the seventh inning saw Jaylyn Williams get called out with a runner at first due to an illegal bat. Williams initially hit a fly ball to center that went off Wright's glove and fell safely to the turf. Following a lengthy delay, Williams was ruled out and his bat was confiscated. The Redhawks recorded the next two outs to end the inning.
Freshman Kyle Miller came on in the eighth and got a six-out save to slam the door on the Gamecocks. Miller struck out the side in the eighth and fanned five of the six hitters he faced. Miller now has two saves this season.
Hayden Malenfant (1-1) was credited with the win, the first of his career. Malenfant struck out two and allowed two hits in two scoreless innings.
Jackson Tavel (0-2) suffered the loss. Tavel allowed two hits and two runs in two-thirds of an inning.
Wilber also added three RBI and one run scored in his fourth three-hit game of the season.
Mason, who pushed his hitting streak to eight games, followed close behind with two hits and a run scored. Mason, Peyton Leeper and Wilber combined for six of SEMO's nine hits at the top of the Redhawks lineup.
Cole Frederick, who hit the game's first pitch for a home run off the top of the wall in right center, led the Gamecocks with three hits.
SEMO and JSU conclude their series with a 1 p.m., CT doubleheader Saturday.
