OXFORD, Ohio  – Trailing by two after six innings of play Western Michigan baseball rattled off five runs on four hits in the top of the seventh inning to defeat Miami, 6-3 in thrilling comeback fashion to even the series on Saturday afternoon.

WMU scored all six of its runs in the sixth and seventh innings highlighted by the five-run seventh. In the top of the seventh the Broncos collected just four hits with two of the hits being triples by sophomore Blake Dunn and junior Drew Devine.

For the sixth time in the last seven games the Brown & Gold scored over four runs and notched 12 hits against the RedHawks. It's the 23rd time this season WMU has registered double digit hits. Three Broncos recorded multi-hit games with Devine earning his eighth two-RBI game.

Freshman RHP Brady Miller had a career day on the mound tossing a career-high seven innings, allowing one earned run on six hits while striking out two to capture his fourth win of the season. In nine starts this season, Miller is 4-2 with an impressive 3.20 ERA.

The Bronco offense was led by Drew Devine who went 3-for-4 with two RBIS and a run scored. Devine earned his 15th multi-hit game of the season and seventh multi-RBI game. With his performance at the plate the Marshall, Mich., native extended his hitting streak to six games and his reached base streak to seven games.

Batting cleanup, senior Nate Grys went 2-for-3 with a run scored to earn his 12th multi-hit game of the season. Fellow senior Jimmy Roche earned his 14th multi-hit game of the season with a 2-for-5 performance at the plate.

The two through five hitters of Roche, Dunn, Grys and Devine went a combined 8-for-17 (.470) with three RBIs and four runs scored against the RedHawks in game two.

Dunn also registered his 28th stolen base of the season and is now tied for second most in a single-season in school history. Dunn needs just four stolen bases to break the school record (31) set by Joel DeVisser back in 1998.

The Broncos have now won four of their last five Mid-American Conference contests and improved their overall record to 17-28, 10-11 in conference play. WMU will look to clinch its second straight MAC series on Sunday, May 12 with first pitch set for 1:00 p.m. The Broncos haven't loss a series at Miami since 2014.

Miami gained an early lead in the bottom of the first thanks to an RBI double to left center field to grab a 1-0 lead. The RedHawks extended their lead in the top of the fifth, scoring two runs on two hits for a 3-0 advantage after five innings of play.

WMU rallied back in the top of the sixth, scoring one run on three hits. With runners on first and second and one out, Dunn stole third to give the Brown & Gold runners on the corners with Devine stepping to the plate. On a 1-0 count, the junior shortstop roped an RBI single to left field, scoring Dunn from third to give the Broncos their first run of the ballgame.

In the top of the seventh the Bronco offense exploded for five runs on four hits with two triples to gain their first and only lead of the ballgame. Sophomore Connor Charping led off the inning with an infield single followed by a double by fellow sophomore Justin McIntyre to give WMU runners in scoring position with no outs.

Senior Andrew Stone slapped an RBI ground ball to second base to score Charping from third to cut Miami's deficit down to one. With Dunn at the plate the Saugatuck, Mich., native rocketed his second triple of the season off the right centerfield wall to score McIntyre and tie the game at 3-3.

Following a walk by senior Nate Grys, Dunn scored on a ball that got away from the Miami catcher to give WMU a one-run lead. Five pitches later, Drew Devine notched his first triple of the season to right field, scoring Grys from second to extend the Bronco lead. One pitch later, Devine came across to score to give WMU a 6-3 advantage thanks to a passed ball.

In the final two innings of play junior Zach Mehelich shut down the RedHawk offense out of the bullpen. Mehelich retired six of the final eight batters with two strikeouts to secure the game two victory and even the series with Miami.
