After a wild pitch, Pasic scooped the ball near the turf grass. The Cotuit, Mass native fully extended his body and applied the tag to keep the game scoreless against No. 7 Mississippi State. The runner was originally called safe, but after a video review, the Bulldog runner was determined to be out. The Bulldogs would end up winning game one of the doubleheader by a 9-2 score.
