Box Score
LAKE POINT, Ga. – Chicago State baseball continued play here this afternoon at the Perfect Game Invite by falling to Canisius by a score of 8-1 at the Perfect Game Complex.
 
The first four innings served as a pitchers' duel between CSU's Justin Wyant (Marion, Iowa/Linn-Mar) and the Griffins' Andrew Sipowicz. Canisius then scored three runs in the fifth inning to gain a 3-0 lead which was highlighted by a two-run triple from Cyrus Senior.
 
The Griffins added another run in the top of the sixth on a balk to go up by a 4-0 margin, but the Green and White scored in the bottom half of the inning when junior Cody Freund (McHenry, Ill./McHenry) hit a leadoff single and moved to second on a wild pitch before crossing home plate on a passed ball to pull within 4-1.
 
Four more runs crossed the plate in the ninth inning for Canisius (4-2) to provide the final margin.
 
Freund batted 2-for-3 and scored a run to lead Chicago State (3-4), while fellow junior Jacob Vanitvelt (Grand Blanc, Mich./Grand Blanc) hit 2-for-4 on the day. Wyant (0-2) gave up three runs on seven hits in 4.1 innings thrown to take the loss for CSU.
 
Canisius received a big offensive day from Liam Wilson, who finished the game with a 4-for-5 effort at the plate. Sipowitz (1-0) held the Green and White to one hit in 4.1 innings thrown to capture the win.
 
CSU closes out the weekend tomorrow morning against former Great West Conference foe NJIT with a start time of 11 a.m.
