Chants have lost five straight games
Coastal Carolina honored its 12 seniors before the first pitch.
Troy (31-14, 14-7 Sun Belt) took the lead in the top of the second inning to take a 1-0 lead after a lead-off walk by Brooks Bryan. Bryan advanced to second on a passed ball before scoring on a ground out by Kyle Mock. The Chanticleers (27-17, 11-10 Sun Belt) threatened in the bottom half of the frame off Trojan starter Grayson Stewart (2-2) as Blake Barthol and Derek Bender hit back-to-back one-out singles to put runners on first and second, but were unable to do any damage.
In the third inning, the Trojans' Kole Myers put the visitors up 2-0 with a lead-off home run to right field off Coastal starter Bryson Shaffer (1-4), who took the loss. CCU answered in the bottom of the inning as Ty Dooley led off with a walk and Sebastian Alexander singled through the right side to put runners on first and third. Dooley scored on a wild pitch with Alexander moved into scoring position to make the score 2-1.
Troy scored four runs in the top of the fourth to take a 6-1 lead on a hit-by-pitch and an RBI single up the middle by Peyton Watts. Watts stole second before Ethan Kavanagh reached by getting hit and both scored on the three-run home run to left field by Will Butcher.
The Trojans put the game away at 15-1 with a nine-run sixth inning as the first eight batters reached before an out was recorded. Coastal's Cameron Sebuck hit a two-out double to left before Walker Mitchell plated Sebuck with an RBI single to left to make the score 15-2.
The Chants' Anthony Galason hit a one-out double down the left field line before Dean Mihos, Alexander, and Corey Zientek all walked to score Galason for the final margin of 15-3.
The Chanticleers will travel to Southern Miss for a three-game SBC series beginning on Friday, May 3, with the first pitch scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. The game will be streamed on ESPN+ and can be heard on WRNN 99.5 Hot Talk.
