Baseball Nut 24 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Final from Alexandria. Holy Cross 6 - 7 - 7 Brossart 5 - 6 - 1 Holy Cross led 6-1 heading into the bottom of the 7th but the Mustangs wouldn't go down easy. After a couple hits and two Holy Cross errors, the Mustangs cut the lead to 6-5 with only 1 out and still 2 men on. Holy Cross then brought in senior Jordan Niehaus in relief of starter Brian Carl. Niehaus would get a strikeout and ground out to preserve the win for the Indians.

Mustang Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Finally a perfect day to play baseball in Alexandria!!! Both Holy Cross pitchers were outstanding. Brian Carl pitched flawlessly through six innings, and Niehaus, who possesses a wicked bender, finished the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
