SAN ANTONIO - Abilene Christian baseball dropped a 13-1 ballgame to Incarnate Word at Sullivan Field on Wednesday afternoon.
The Wildcats look to return to the win column this weekend as they host Loyola Marymount for a three-game series at Crutcher Scott Field at Bullock Brothers Ballpark. ACU kicks off Big Country Weekend at 6 p.m. Friday before games at 3 p.m. Saturday and 12 p.m. Sunday.
Zandt Payne, Grant Watkins and Kanon Sundgren collected the Wildcats' three hits, with Payne and Watkins each recording a double. Payne opened the sixth inning with a two-bagger and advanced to third on a Watkins fly out before scoring on a passed ball.
