Javelina Baseball takes the series versus Eastern

The Javelina baseball team left Portales, N.M., with a conference series win this past weekend.
The Javelinas hit the road over spring break and won three of four games in what was a very offensive weekend.
The Javelinas totaled a whopping 47 runs on the weekend compared to the Gryehounds total of 23.
Sophomore Giancarlo Servin totaled nine hits on the weekend and seven RBIs to lead the Javelina offense.
When asked about the big win in New Mexico, student assistant Christian Caudle said, “The travel to Portales is not an easy one, and we did a good job of overcoming that obstacle. Anytime you can win a series on the road, you have to be happy about it. Now we have to carry this momentum into conference with West Texas this coming weekend at home.”
In game one of the series the Javelinas threw up 16 runs on the board opening the series with a very dominating performance at the plate.
Servin and Senior Pablo Hernandez both had three hits a piece at the plate and together batted in five runs.
The Javelinas went on to win game one by a score of 16-4.
Game two was a bit of a different story compared to game one.
The Javelinas fought hard but lost the game 11-6.
Game three the Javelinas got back on track and put up 17 runs to win the game 17-1.
Servin turned in another three-hit game with three RBIs.
Junior Seth Spinn also had a three-hit game with a trio of RBIs as well.
The Javelinas scored every single inning in the game and could not be stopped at the plate.
Game four of the series was a tight one but the Javelinas prevailed winning 8-7.
Servin had another outstanding night at the plate with three more hits to add to his weekend total.
Cameron Melcher also turned in three hits in the game as well.
Hernandez also hit a three runs blast to help the Javelinas win the game.
Senior Garrett Alexander came in to close out the game and series.
When asked about the series win head coach Jason Gonzalez said, “I’m extremely proud of the fight and pack mentality that the guys showed…
They out-toughed the other team and they don’t know how to quit.”
TAMUK will be back at home at 6pm Friday, March, 22 to take on West Texas at Nolan Ryan Field.
