INDIANAPOLIS – The Bulldogs won their second-straight game on Wednesday night by posting a 9-7 victory over visiting Eastern Michigan. Butler scored five of their nine runs in the bottom of the second inning. Nick Miketinac was credited with the win (1-0) while Aaron Barokas picked up the save (1).
 
The Bulldogs used a sac fly in the first inning to take a lead, but the game was quickly tied with an EMU run in the top of the second. The bottom half of the inning was huge for BU as the 'Dawgs scored five runs off three hits. Joey Urban singled through the right side to score two, Lukas Galdoni walked with the bases loaded to add a run and Jake DeFries would push a ball to center for a sac fly.
 
The 'Dawgs added a run in the sixth with Urban hitting a triple to lead-off the frame. He came around to score on a wild pitch with Carter Dorighi at the dish.
 
Insurance runs came in the seventh for Butler. Carter Dorighi singled through the left side of the infield to score Billy Wurch and a bases loaded walk with Kollyn All in the game would help BU come out on top.
 
Urban was 2-for-4 in the game with two RBI and two runs scored. Dorighi led the team with three hits while adding an RBI and a run. BU also got two hits and two runs from Wurch in his starter at third base.
 
BU will look to ride this momentum into tomorrow when they face Ball State in Muncie. First pitch for that contest has been moved up to 2 PM.
