Merejo Homers in Loss to Kennesaw State

ATLANTA – Georgia State fell 5-1 to Kennesaw State Friday at the GSU Baseball Complex in the opener of a four-game, home-and-home series between the two Atlanta-area programs.
 
Elian Merejo homered for the Panthers, blasting a solo shot over the center field wall in the third inning for his team-leading third homer of the season and a 1-0 lead for GSU.
 
But that would be the only run for the Panthers, who had seven hits but left eight on base.
 
GSU starter Ryan Watson (2-3) cruised through the first three innings, retiring the first nine batters on just 30 pitches, while striking out six. But he ran into trouble in the fourth and fifth, when KSU scored all five of their runs.
 
Relievers Dawson Sweatt (2 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 2 K) and Seth Clark (3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 K) combined to pitch five scoreless innings.
 
Will Mize had two hits for GSU, and Josh Smith went 1-for-3, making him 8-for-12 over the last three games.
 
KSU starter Jake Rice improved to 5-0 on the season as he allowed one run on five hits with seven strikeouts over five innings, and Nathan Holler pitched the final four innings for the save.
 
The series continues Saturday with a 2 p.m. game at the GSU Baseball Complex that will air on ESPN+. Then the two teams will meet at Kennesaw State Sunday (1 p.m.) and Monday (5 p.m.).
