Chris Driedric hit a solo shot in the first and Jake West hit a two-run homer in the second to give Erickson a comfortable 6-0 lead. In the second, Ian Bryan and Nick Brill each drove in runs with doubles. 

East Texas Baptist (12-26, 5-11 ASC) managed a run in the fourth, but Erickson came back with a scoreless fifth and sixth inning. Freddy Prince drove in an insurance run in the eighth.

Erickson improves his record to 2-6. He struck out four and walked three.

Prince went 3-for-4 with an RBI. Driedric and Tony Morales each had a pair of hits.
