After dropping the first two games of the series 21-5 and 8-2, Ohio came out and took some early momentum.The Bobcats jumped ahead 1-0 in the first inning on an RBI ground out by Gauntlett Eldemire.
Bowling Green (18-18-1, 9-6 MAC) charged back to take a 2-1 lead in the second inning. It was a lead that BGSU starter Kevin Leady wouldn't relinquish in his seven strong innings. His offense didn't stop either as the Falcons one-run lead ballooned to eight runs by the eighth inning.
