Baseball Drops Series Opener With SLU, 8-4

Michael DiMartini And Rylan Lujo Both Homered For The Flyers

DAYTON – The University of Dayton baseball team started hot but could not contain the Saint Louis offense, falling 8-4 in the series opener against the Billikens at Woerner Field at AES Ohio Stadium.
 
The FlyBoys jumped ahead early thanks to a solo home run from Rylan Lujo in the first and a three-run blast from Michael DiMartini in the second.
 
SLU chipped away with a run in the fourth, two in the fifth and another in the sixth to tie the score, then bested the Dayton bullpen with a pair of runs in the eighth and ninth innings.
 
Lujo and Aiden Heberlie each had two hits and a run scored for UD, while DiMartini's seventh homer of the year drove in three.
 
Senior Chris Peguero struck out seven in 5.2 innings of work, leaving the game with a no-decision.
 
BY THE NUMBERS
17 – consecutive games with a hit for sophomore Michael DiMartini
3 – straight games with a home run for freshman Rylan Lujo
5 – multi-hit games for Aiden Heberlie this season
10 – strikeouts for Dayton pitching (Peguero – 7, LaPalm – 1, Heller – 2)
