4.8.04 - The
Foresters faced a Marian College squad that came to town with an
undefeated (9-0) record in conference play and earned a split,
winning game one 9-4 and losing game two 8-3. In the opening
game, Josh Clark picked up his fourth win of the season for the
Foresters. He pitched five and two thirds innings and gave up
four earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out four.
HC scored a single run in the bottom of the first and put four on
the board in both the third and fifth innings to hand the Knights
their first MCC defeat. Tim Burris and Andy Janzen both had
two hits in the game to lead the Foresters. In the nightcap,
the Foresters out-hit Marian 10-7, but too many free passes for the
Knights led to the Foresters' demise. Starting pitcher, Jason
Stanley (1-4), gave up five earned runs on five hits and six walks
in six innings, and Levi Sell, who came on in relief in the seventh,
allowed three earned runs on two hits and two walks. HC scored
a run in the first, fifth, and sixth innings, but just couldn't get
over the hump. The split gives the Foresters a 10-12 record
overall and a 7-3 record in the MCC |
