Burns named MAC West Pitcher of the Week

Sophomore right-handed pitcher Brendan Burns earned the Mid-American Conference West Division Pitcher of the Week award. Burns won his first start of the year in the Cardinals' 9-3 win over Milwaukee Feb. 27. He struck out six, allowed four hits and walked four batters in six innings pitched. As a freshman, Burns posted a 7.58 ERA in 38 innings, but through 10.1 innings in 2016, he has 10 strikeouts and has only allowed one earned run. Ball State returns to action March 4 against Ole Miss in the Chanticleer Classic in Conway, South Carolina.

Cardinals host Central Michigan, can guarantee MAC West title with victory

When Ball State (19-10, 10-6 Mid-American Conference) hosts Central Michigan (16-13, 9-7 MAC) March 1, it will be fighting to stay on top of the MAC West Division. A victory would secure the Cardinals' first outright MAC West title since the 2001-02 season, as well as Ball State's first 20-win season since that same season. Ball State has won four out of its last five games, including a record-setting night in its last game against Eastern Michigan. Central Michigan has won two in a row but trails Ball State by one game in the MAC West.
