March 25, 2025 | St. Charles, Mo. | Lou Brock Complex
Bradley battled in a back-and-forth extra-inning thriller but fell just short in a 12-11 loss to Lindenwood. The Braves racked up 17 hits and three home runs while taking the Lions to 14 innings in a high-energy midweek contest.
Game: Lindenwood 12, Bradley 11 (14 Innings)
Bradley jumped out to an early lead with three first-inning runs and continued to produce offensively, scoring in seven different innings. The Braves led 9-3 in the sixth before Lindenwood mounted a comeback, scoring two in the eighth and seven in the ninth to force extras. Bradley reclaimed the lead in the 14th before a Lindenwood walk-off sealed the outcome.
Mitch Ball powered the offense with two home runs and five RBIs, while Timmy O'Brien added a four-hit night with a solo homer. The Braves' bullpen struck out nine, but Lindenwood capitalized with late-game rallies.
Top Performer: Mitch Ball (2-for-6, 2 HR, 5 RBI)
Bradley Offense: 17 hits, 11 runs, 3 doubles, 3 HR, 9 walks
Pitching Grit: 12 runs allowed, 11 earned, 9 strikeouts, 6 walks
Looking Ahead
The Braves, now 3-17 on the season, return home to regroup before resuming conference play, as they host Southern Illinois (16-7) this weekend. With strong offensive performances from Ball, O'Brien, and others, Bradley will look to build momentum moving forward.
