GRANVILLE, W. Va. – The State College Spikes were once again besieged by Judah Morris, as the West Virginia Black Bears slugger recorded his second multi-homer game against the Spikes this season in the Black Bears’ 9-3 win on Saturday night at Kendrick Family Ballpark.

Morris, who hit two homers in the opener of the MLB Draft League’s Second Half against the Spikes (7-9 2ndHalf) on July 17, smashed two more as part of a four-hit, four-RBI game on Saturday. The Illinois State product led off the bottom of the fifth with a 412-foot solo shot to center field, then started the West Virginia (11-4 2ndHalf) seventh with a 380-foot blast to right field.

Jakobi Davis produced a pair of doubles in his return to the lineup for the Spikes, who nearly came back as they did in the series opener on Friday. Down 4-1 entering the sixth, State College edged closer on Chenar Brown’s RBI groundout in that inning and James Oman’s run-scoring double in the seventh.

However, after Morris hit his second homer to extend the margin to 5-3, the Black Bears added four runs in the eighth to put the game out of reach.

Spikes starter Luke House (4-1) took the loss, his first with the club, after yielding four runs over five innings. West Virginia starter Gavin Braunecker (4-0) gave up three runs, two of them earned, over 6 2/3 innings to remain unbeaten.
