Special moment for Ed Servais. Creighton’s longtime baseball coach was swarmed by his six grandchildren after the final home game of his career. https://t.co/ge5zGYcKR9

FINAL: Xavier 4, Creighton 2 Giving up three in the seventh cost the Jays, who fall to 34-14, 14-4 Big East. They now have to win all three at Georgetown next weekend to clinch an outright conference crown. Ed Servais is about to be honored on the field.

Xavier didn’t do any damage in the top of the ninth, so Creighton has three outs to erase a 4-2 deficit. Here we go.

North flew out to end the seventh. Xavier takes a 4-2 lead into the eighth. Let's see if Cardiac Creighton comes through again, less than 24 hours after walking off Game 2.

Hold up. Creighton got consecutive two-out singles from Gillen and Scherrman, then Nolan Sailors lined an RBI double to right. Ben North steps to the dish with runners on second and third.

Rough start to the seventh for Creighton. Jays pulled Wilson Magers, and Xavier got three two-out runs off of Ian Koosman. Musketeers lead 4-1. Tough hole to dig out of on a day runs — hits, even — have been at a premium.

Creighton stranded runners on the corners to end the sixth. It's still a 1-1 pitchers' duel, a fitting farewell to The Chuck for defensive-minded Ed Servais. Stretch time. Ian Koosman is set to take over on the bump for Wilson Magers.

Creighton pitcher Wilson Magers just worked out of one helluva jam. Xavier's sac bunt put runners on second and third with one out in T4, then Magers delivered back-to-back strikeouts. He was fired up, flexing and roaring as he walked off the mound. Huge spot to keep it 1-1.

And Creighton responded after two Xavier errors in a sequence that allowed Tate Gillen, who reached with a leadoff single, to go from first to home. Just like that, they're knotted at 1-1.

Xavier small-balled its way on the board. Musketeers struck first with a walk, groundout, RBI groundout. Creighton's down 1-0 — without giving up a hit — entering the bottom of the first.

Beautiful day at The Chuck. Today is Ed Servais’ final home game. Already a bunch of family and former players here. Should be a special one. … Oh! And the Jays are looking to sweep Xavier. First pitch coming shortly. https://t.co/6pXU89mmim
