JACKSON, MS- Daniel Ross threw five shutout innings and Keith Shumaker drove in three as Millsaps completed the sweep of the Centre Colonels with a 7-2 win on Sunday.
Ross earned his first win of the year, allowing just two hits and striking out one in five innings. Four other Majors combined for four innings of strong relief in the win.
The Majors started quickly on Sunday, putting up three runs in the first inning. After Mike Rohrer singled, Shumaker doubled him home for the first run of the game. Isaac Glenn followed with a RBI triple and William Chenoweth a run-scoring groundout.
Shumaker struck again in the second, singling home Bryce Blackburn and Andy Page as Millsaps made it 5-0 after two.
Ross kept Centre off balance, never allowing a runner to reach scoring position and continually got the Majors back up to the plate. In the fifth, Annon Etheridge singled home Glenn and Chenoweth to give Millsaps a 7-0 lead.
The Majors would cruise from there, Kelley Gunn pitched the final two innings, closing out the game and allowing just a walk and a hit.
Millsaps now stands at 10-2 in the SAA and 19-4 overall. They will host Huntingdon in a non-conference game on Tuesday before a crucial series with BSC over the weekend. First pitch from Twenty Field is set for 4pm on Tuesday.
