FORT WORTH, Texas —The Texas Wesleyan Baseball team split a double header with Bellevue, taking game one 4-3, but falling 10-5 in the nightcap on Sunday at Sycamore Park.
 
In game one, the Rams battled back from a 3-0 deficit to tie it in the 4^th inning. Jose Sosa hit an RBI triple and TXWES also scored on a sac fly and an error.
 
The Bruins threatened in the top of the 7^th as Garrett Moltzan inherited a no-out bases loaded jam. The Justin, Texas native took care of business, striking out the first batter while catcher Carson Cheaney caught a runner stealing. Moltzan struck out the last batter firing up his team heading into bottom of the frame.
 
With two outs, Brayden Bahnsen reached on a walk, and then Tyriece Silas, playing in his first game since transferring to TXWES from San Jacinto College, hit a walk off double for the Rams' 4-3 win.
 
For his effort on the mound, Moltzan earned his second win of the season.
 
Errors would haunt the Rams in game two as they committed 4 errors to BU's 1, even though TXWES out-hit the Bruins 7-5.
 
BU had a narrow 2-1 until the 4^th inning when they plated four including a 3-run homer. TXWES would not catch up to fall 10-5 by game's end.
 
Ram highlights included two stolen bases by Bahnsen, 2 RBI from Kaden Brown, a solo homer for Sosa and a RBI double from Matt Espinoza.
 
Starter Luis Lopez-Vadez (L, 1-2) was charged with loss. He pitched the first 3 innings allowing 3 hits, 4 earned runs while striking out 5. 
 
The teams finish the series with a Monday double header beginning at noon.
