The Tigers scored four in the fourth of the nightcap to take a 4-1 lead, but Transylvania eventually tied the score and plated the game-winner on Michael Derringer's two out single.

J.B. Blanchard suffered the loss in relief and dropped to 0-1, while Daniel Rhea improved to 1-0.

The Tigers return to action on Saturday, March 7, when they host Illinois Wesleyan and Hanover.
