Appalachian State Baseball Drops Contest to Georgia State – WHKY
App State Baseball conceded five runs in the top of the first and was unable to overcome the early deficit in a 20-10 loss to Georgia State on Friday at Smith Stadium.
As a result, Saturday’s season finale between App State (22-30, 12-17) and Georgia State (26-29, 11-18) will serve as an elimination game, with the winner claiming the final spot in next week’s Sun Belt tournament.
Tyler Lichtenberger hit a two-run home run in the eighth inning and Kameron Miller belted a three-run shot in the ninth as the duo combined for seven hits and six RBIs in the contest. Riley Luft also added two hits and drove in three runs.
Georgia State hit five home runs in the ballgame and scored five runs in three different innings to help the visitors put the game away late.
On the mound, Conner Barozzino paced the Mountaineers, allowing just a run in 3.1 innings in relief while striking out two.
