Caley Pitches Baseball to Split at Huntington


 Michael Caley was stellar on the mound for Indiana Wesleyan University on Thursday to help the Wildcat baseball team secure a doubleheader split at Huntington (Ind.) University.
Caley allowed just one run on six hits in a complete game effort. He walked two and struck out four in a 91-pitch outing as Indiana Wesleyan won the nightcap 2-1.

Indiana Wesleyan supplied all the offense Caley would need in the top of the first. Huntington would threaten in the fourth inning as the first three batters reached via a single, a walk, and an error. Caley retired the next hitter on a strikeout but Huntington scored a run on a balk. With the tying and go-ahead runs now in scoring position with just one out, Caley induced a line out and a ground out to escape any further damage and maintain the lead 2-1.

The Foresters would threaten one last time in the bottom of the seventh. A two out single moved the tying run to second base. But again Caley would induce a ground ball to short that ended the game.
