The Gustavus baseball team moved to 4-0 in conference play with a doubleheader sweep against Concordia in Moorhead on Sunday afternoon. The Gusties scored five times in the sixth inning and twice in the seventh inning to win game one 9-8 and then used timely hitting and a great pitching performance from Adam Bren to claim game two 3-1.

Kaus doubled in both the sixth and seventh innings to ignite the Gustie rally, while Ruff tripled to drive in Kaus in the sixth and singled to drive in what turned out to be the winning run in the top of the seventh.
