David Glancy hits his first career home run for the Johnnies
LAS VEGAS (March 8, 2020) – The St. John's baseball team wrapped its spring break trip with a 16-2 loss at UNLV on Sunday afternoon.
David Glancy hit the first home run of his St. John's career in the top of the second. Carson Bartels drove in the Red Storm's other run with a fifth inning single.
Ryan Markey logged two of the team's five hits on the afternoon, including a double, and scored once. Ryan Hogan also singled for the Red Storm.
After St. John's stranded runners on second and third in the top of the first, UNLV plated four runs in the bottom of the first to open a sizable lead early.
St. John's responded in the bottom of the second, as Glancy lifted a one-out solo shot to center to put the Red Storm on the board.
UNLV responded with two runs in the second followed by another run in the third, pushing its lead to six, 7-1, after just three innings of action.
Following a scoreless fourth from both sides, Markey led off the fifth with a double before advancing to third on a Peter Abinanti grounder and coming home to score on an RBI single off the bat of Bartels. The Runnin' Rebels, however, quickly bumped their lead back to six, 8-2, after a solo homer from Austin Pfeifer.
UNLV added six runs in the sixth before capping the scoring with two more in the seventh.
St. Johns (3-9) will open the home portion of its schedule this week, beginning with two midweek games against Saint Peter's on Tuesday and Iona on Wednesday. First pitch for both games at Jack Kaiser Stadium is scheduled for 3 p.m.
