INDIANAPOLIS - The No. 7 UIndy baseball team (17-8, 3-5 GLVC) scored seven times in each game on Saturday against the visiting Bellarmine Knights, but the visitors inched past the Hounds to complete the conference sweep. Dylan Jones hit two homers in game one, including a tying shot in the seventh, while Hunter Waning also drilled a pair of four-baggers on the day. 

Bellarmine 9, UIndy 7 (8 innings)
Both starting pitchers held the opposition scoreless through the first couple innings before Jones got the best of Knights' hurler in the third with a three-run shot to left field to break open the scoring. Waning followed up with his first long ball of the day in the fourth to give the Hounds a 5-0 lead. The Knights chipped away in the fifth inning, scoring three runs before adding another three in the sixth. Joe Kenney joined the dinger derby with a solo shot in the bottom of the fifth. 

Tied at six after a Knights homer, Bellarmine took its first lead of the game with a run-scoring knock Hounds' reliever Jon Crawford. Jones would not let the Crimson and Grey go silently, however, as he blasted a two-out homer to force extra innings. Unfortunately for the Greyhounds, the Knights also used the long ball to their advantage, scoring a pair in the eighth before closing out the game with the 9-7 win. 

Bellarmine 11, UIndy 7
The Knights rode the momentum from game one to a quick 3-0 lead after an inning in the night cap. Another homer in the fifth added to the visitors' lead, but a Waning bomb and Macy Holdsworth single cut the deficit to just two runs. Bellarmine exploded for seven runs in the top of the sixth, which was just the first of two crooked numbers to put on the scoreboard in the inning. 

Trailing 11-2, Waning began a five-run sixth inning with a single that scored Nick Miller. Tyler Phillips and Storm Joop also singled to bring home runs, while the latter crossed home on a passed ball. The Hounds' rally ended at five, however, which would hold as the final score of 11-7.

Cole Humphrey pitched an inning of scoreless ball in his season debut. 

UIndy will travel to Hammond, Ind. this Wednesday for an in-region doubleheader with Purdue Northwest. First pitch is scheduled for 1 p.m.
