Kyle Michalik, Seth Kinker, and Yianni Pavlopoulos combined to toss seven scoreless innings of relief for the scarlet and gray. Jake Post started on the mound for Ohio State, and had kind of an all-or-nothing-day in the chilly conditions. In five innings of work, the redshirt senior right-hander allowed two runs on six hits, walking four and striking out six. Post did not figure into the decision. Also not figuring in the decision was the Musketeers’ Zac Lowther, though through no fault of his own. The junior southpaw allowed just one hit in his six innings of work, but gave up two runs, only one of which was earned. Lowther walked three batters, but also set down 11 via the strikeout. Xavier struck first, putting up a run ...
