More SUNYAC baseball

We played host to New Paltz on Sunday and Monday. Unfortunately, we were outplayed both games on Sunday. Giving up early runs in both games had us playing catch-up all day. In game 1, we did get within a run twice, before falling 10-8.

We outhit the Hawks 5-2 in game 2, but could not muster a run against their ace, Chris Chismar. Hopefully we get another crack at him. He was the NY Region Pitcher of the Year a couple years ago, and is tough to hit. It's always fun to face some of the top pitchers in our conference.

After the first inning, our staff did not allow a hit as Ace settled in, freshman Carl Wolf and Evan Carmello threw well.

Game 3 on Monday saw us claim a 7-1 victory. One of the best plays of the game came when Kenny Johnston singled. He noticed second base was not covered -- neither was third -- and took a couple extra bases. "Great baserunners never take their eye off the ball."

Conner Lorenzo had a great day in the field making eight assists at second base. A lot of grounders his way.

Tuesday at Brockport was rained out -- a welcome break after three games in two days. We'll make the trip up to Brockport on Wednesday. Turns out it was a good thing we didn't go. Rained all day long.

Brockport should be broadcasting the game live via webcast (click here), and live stats here. A shout out to former Blue Devil LHP, Ricky Webster, who is the assistant Sports Info Director at Brockport and does a lot with the broadcasts and live stats.
