Florida A&M Takes Weekend Series with 5-2 Victory over Norfolk State

Norfolk, Va. | Florida A&M starting pitcher Kelyn Fox earned his sixth victory of the season as the Rattlers defeated Norfolk State 5-2, winning the weekend series, and retaining firm control of first place in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Southern Division.
 
Fox (6-1) had a big game, striking out eight batters while holding NSU (19-24, 15-9 MEAC) to just one run on seven hits in 8.0 innings of work. 
 
Offensively, FAMU (18-27, 12-8 MEAC) racked up 10 hits. LJ Bryant and Jared Weber both went 2-for-4 with Bryant adding an RBI. Octavien Moyer and Joseph Pierini drove in two runs apiece. 
 
FAMU opened the scoring in the second inning when Moyer hit a two-RBI single, giving the Rattlers a 2-0 lead. 
 
Neither team scored another run until the seventh inning when Pierini tripled to left centerfield, driving in two more runs. One batter later, Bryant scored Pierini with a single to centerfield, pushing the Rattlers ahead for good.
