WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (Interstat) — Blake Morningstar struck out 11 over six dominant innings as Wake Forest rallied to defeat Stanford 7-4 on Friday at Gene Hooks Field.

The Demon Deacons (13-1) erased an early four-run deficit with a four-run fourth inning, aided by a Stanford error. Kade Lewis drove in two runs as part of Wake Forest’s 15-hit attack.

Stanford’s Rintaro Sasaki opened the scoring with a first-inning solo homer. Henry McDonald added a two-run pinch-hit homer in the ninth for the Cardinal (5-8), who managed just six hits. Starter Nick Dugan took the loss, allowing five earned runs in five innings.
