ALLIANCE, Ohio – The Mount Union baseball team lost, 6-5, in a back-and-forth battle against Washington and Jefferson in a non-conference home contest Sunday afternoon.

W&J (20-10) battled back and took a 5-3 lead after two runs in the fourth and three in the sixth. The Raiders tied the game with two runs in the seventh, however, Tyler Horvat of the Presidents stole home in the ninth which proved to be the game-winner.
 
Raider sophomore pitcher Brady Hansen (Beaver, Pa. / Beaver Area) moved to 4-2 on the year after coming in for relief in the ninth, giving up one run off one hit and striking out one.
