Pirates Sweep Austin College

Box Score 1 | Box Score 2

GEORGETOWN, TEXAS—Southwestern Baseball (20-14, 10-6) completed the series sweep against the Austin College 'Roos (8-24, 1-14) late Friday night. Due to inclement weather inbound on Saturday, the Pirates played a double-header starting at 6:00 PM in Sherman, Texas. In game number two, Southwestern beat the 'Roos by a seven-run margin, 10-3. The final game of the series would prove to be the closest, as it would take ten innings for the Pirates to finally down the 'Roos, 4-1.

  • Maxwell Mims went for two hits, two runs scored, and two RBIs, with a home run.
