Caps Fall to Huskies

In its first night game of the year, Broughton fell to conference foe Heritage, 5-1.  Senior pitcher Will Baldwin scattered five hits over five innings with three strikeouts but Heritage pitchers limited the Caps to three hits.

In the Caps 1st, Warren Grady (Jr. CF) walked and Kyle Ehlers (Soph. 3B) singled but both were left on base.  In the 3rd, Baldwin (Sr. P) singled but the Caps could not capitalize.  Dylan Lamm (Sr. LF) walked to begin the 5th.  Jacob McCaslin (Sr. DH/P) bunted and was able to make it to second on a throwing error as Lamm raced around the bases to score.  Baldwin was hit by a pitch to put the tying run on base but both runners were stranded.  Ehlers collected his second single of the game in the 6th and McCaslin pitched the bottom of the 6th.  Broughton was unable to get anything going in its final at bat.

Next game: Thursday, April 14th vs. Athens Drive @ Broughton @ 4:30.
