FAMU improved to 15-14 on the season, sending 13 hits to all parts of the park in one of its most complete offensive performances of the year.<\/p>\n<p>The third inning was the knockout punch. <a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/alex-monile\/5473\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5473\" target=\"_blank\">Alex Monile<\/a> singled, <a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/ethan-miller\/5453\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5453\" target=\"_blank\">Ethan Miller<\/a> singled, and <a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/josue-figueroa\/4492\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"4492\" target=\"_blank\">Josue Figueroa<\/a> drove in the first run with a single to left. A Prairie View error put two more runners on, then <a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/justen-crews\/5448\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5448\" target=\"_blank\">Justen Crews<\/a> singled up the middle for two RBIs to make it 4-1. <a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/jay-campbell\/5446\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5446\" target=\"_blank\">Jay Campbell<\/a> singled to right-center and McKenzie followed immediately with a three-run homer to push the lead to 7-1. The Rattlers sent nine batters to the plate and collected seven hits in the frame against starter Kamar Dove, who did not make it out of the third.<\/p>\n<p>FAMU was not done. The Rattlers tacked on a run in the fourth on a Crews fielder&#8217;s choice RBI, then erupted for three more in the fifth \u2014 with Miller collecting an RBI hit by pitch, Figueroa grounding in a run and <a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/caden-kresak\/5469\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5469\" target=\"_blank\">Caden Kresak<\/a> singling home another to push it to 11-4. A three-run sixth put the game fully out of reach, capped by a Figueroa sacrifice fly that made it 14-4.<\/p>\n<p>McKenzie finished 2-for-4 with a double, a home run and three RBIs. Figueroa matched him with three RBIs of his own, going 2-for-3 with a double and a sacrifice fly. Crews also drove in three from the five-hole, reaching base on a hit and two fielder&#8217;s choice scenarios while crossing the plate twice. Campbell went 2-for-5 with a double and scored twice.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/jesus-campa\/5445\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5445\" target=\"_blank\">Jesus Campa<\/a> picked up the win, working five innings and allowing four runs on five hits. He battled his control at times \u2014 walking three and throwing two wild pitches \u2014 but the Rattler lead was so large by the time Prairie View threatened that it never mattered. <a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/karson-lindsey\/5472\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5472\" target=\"_blank\">Karson Lindsey<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/tanner-walker\/4499\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"4499\" target=\"_blank\">Tanner Walker<\/a> each threw a clean inning in relief to finish it off.<\/p>\n<p>Prairie View&#8217;s Ryland Duson gave the Panthers a brief spark, going 3-for-4 with a double and three RBIs \u2014 accounting for nearly all of the team&#8217;s production \u2014 but the Panthers committed three errors and could not generate enough offense against FAMU&#8217;s deep lineup.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nKey Stats \u2014 Florida A&amp;M 14, Prairie View 4<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Batting<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/jackson-mckenzie\/5471\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5471\" target=\"_blank\">Jackson McKenzie<\/a> \u2014 2-4, HR, 2B, 3 RBI, 2 R (3-run HR in 3rd inning)<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/josue-figueroa\/4492\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"4492\" target=\"_blank\">Josue Figueroa<\/a> \u2014 2-3, 2B, SF, 3 RBI, 2 R<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/justen-crews\/5448\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5448\" target=\"_blank\">Justen Crews<\/a> \u2014 1-5, 3 RBI, R<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/jay-campbell\/5446\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5446\" target=\"_blank\">Jay Campbell<\/a> \u2014 2-5, 2B, 2 R<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/ethan-miller\/5453\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5453\" target=\"_blank\">Ethan Miller<\/a> \u2014 1-3, 2 RBI, R, HBP<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nPitching<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/jesus-campa\/5445\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5445\" target=\"_blank\">Jesus Campa<\/a> (W, 2-2) \u2014 5.0 IP, 5 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 3 BB, 1 K<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/karson-lindsey\/5472\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"5472\" target=\"_blank\">Karson Lindsey<\/a> \u2014 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/famuathletics.com\/sports\/baseball\/roster\/tanner-walker\/4499\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"4499\" target=\"_blank\">Tanner Walker<\/a> \u2014 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; Next Game: at Troy University 4\/8\/2026 | TBA &#13; Apr. 08 (Wed) \/ TBA&#13; &#13;&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":191739,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[232,234,233],"class_list":["post-220204","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tallahassee","tag-tallahassee","tag-tallahassee-headlines","tag-tallahassee-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220204","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=220204"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220204\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/191739"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=220204"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=220204"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=220204"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
