Caps down 3-2 when rain suspended play

Sophomore Warren Grady took the mound to begin the game and pitched a solid 3 2/3 innings.  In addition to Grady, Coach Jones’ lineup included John Woods (Sr.) behind the plate, Mathis Dean (Fr.) at 1^st, Kyle Ehlers (Fr.) 2^nd, Dom Ford (Sr.) SS, Cam Epperson (Jr.) 3^rd, Thomas Walden (Jr.) LF, Will Baldwin (Jr.) CF and Noah Yarborough (Sr.) RF.

Dom Ford got things going with two put outs in the top of the 1^st and in the Caps first at bat, Ford hit a deep shot to right that was misplayed.  Grady had a sacrifice bunt and Ford scored on a RBI single by Cam Epperson.  In the bottom of the 2^nd Walden singled up the middle and scored on a double by Ford to make it 2-0 Caps.  After Grady shut out the Trojans in the top of the 3^rd, Epperson doubled, followed by singles from Woods and Baldwin but the Caps left the bases loaded in the 3^rd.  Garner’s bats woke up in the top of the 4^th to plate 3 runs.  Will Collins (Jr.) came in to pitch the final out of the 4^th, a three-pitch strikeout.  Garner held the Caps scoreless in the bottom of the 4^th.  Collins went back to pitch the 5^th and that’s when the raindrops started to fall.  Game was suspended and will be completed at a later date.
