ORLANDO, FLA. -- The Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology baseball team improved to 6-1 on its trip to Florida with a 3-2 victory over Muhlenberg College on Thursday.

The victory was Rose-Hulman's third in its final at bat during the trip, as junior Andrew Bilse (Munster) slapped a game winning single to score senior Michael Cramer (Burr Ridge, Ill./Hinsdale South) in the bottom of the ninth.

The ninth inning tally made a winner out of junior Jared Kronable (Grafton, Ill./Marquette), who combined with freshman Ryan Fuller (Fort Wayne/ Elmhurst) on a four-hitter. 

Kronable tossed the final four innings and allowed two hits and one run, after Fuller allowed just two hits with six strikeouts in five innings of work.

Senior Andrew Pinkstaff (Vincennes/Lincoln) led the Engineer offense with a double and a ninth-inning single to help spark the game winning rally.  Junior Tim Tepe (Cincinnati, Ohio/Elder) added a pair of singles on the day.

The ninth inning started with a single by Cramer and a sacrifice bunt by sophomore Michael Kovacs (Cincinnati, Ohio/Moeller).  After sophomore Kreigh Williams (Ossian/Norwell) was hit by a pitch, Pinkstaff singled to load the bases.  Bilse ended the game with his single to center field.

Rose-Hulman improved to 6-1 on the season and squares off with 26th ranked and undefeated Augustana College in a doubleheader on Friday at 9 a.m.
