The Bulldogs won game three of the weekend series at Lindenwood by the final score of 11-10. The teams combined for 30 hits on Saturday as the Lions made a push to tie the game in the bottom of the ninth inning. BU held on for their sixth win of the year. Gabe Pancratz got his first win on the mound and Simon Linde came up with his first save.
 
Tate Foxson struck out a team-best five batters in his quality start that lasted four innings and Pancratz would throw a clean fifth to keep BU in front 8-2.
 
Lindenwood fired back with three runs in the bottom of the sixth and five in the bottom of the ninth to get back within one of BU, but Linde got his matchup to ground out allowing BU to move ahead in the series two games to one.
 
David Ayers, Jack Bello and Zach Munton all had three RBI's for the Bulldogs. Every member of that trio hit a double on Saturday and Tommy Townsend would return to the lineup as the designated hitter to provide BU with two more RBI's.
 
Butler enjoyed a 9-2 lead after the sixth, but saw the Lions hit two home runs late in the game to charge back into the contest. Buschschulte took the loss on the mound for Lindenwood. He struck out four batters and didn't issue a walk.
 
The two evenly matched teams will wrap up their weekend series tomorrow with a 2 p.m. eastern, 1 p.m. central finale.
