HAMPDEN-SYDNEY DOWNS BRIDGEWATER , 6-4, IN ODAC TOURNAMENT

(collegiate baseball)

 

            SALEM , VA —The sixth-seeded Hampden-Sydney College Tigers picked up a 6-4 victory over top-seeded Bridgewater College Thursday in the opening game of the 2005 Old Dominion Athletic Conference Baseball Tournament at Salem Memorial Stadium.  With the win the Tigers improve to 21-13 overall, while the Eagles fall to 23-13-1.

 

Tiger starter John Schoenholtz improved his overall record to 8-1 as he pitched his seventh complete game of the season and allowed just five hits, struck out eight and walked two, while all four of Bridgewater’s runs were unearned.  Bridgewater ace Jimmy Greene took the loss after allowing six runs (four earned) on six hits, while walking two and striking out five in seven and one-third innings of work.

 

Hampden-Sydney took a 1-0 lead in the second inning after senior second baseman Mike Clark doubled to lead off, advanced to second on a Jason Bour bunt, and scored on Joe Knowles’ sacrifice fly.  The Tigers added a second run in the third as Chris Padgett singled to drive in Luke Brankley.

 

The Eagles cut the Tiger lead in half in the bottom of the third on Tracy Wagner’s RBI groundout, but the Tigers came back with three in their half of the fourth on Luke Brankley’s three-run homer over the left field fence.

 

Bridgewater rallied with three in its half of the fourth when Matt Johnson, whose at bat remained alive after a dropped foul ball by Hampden-Sydney’s catcher, singled to score Bryan Saunders and Kurt Walling, while Jono Brooks tripled to score Johnson and cut the Tiger lead to one run, 5-4. Hampden-Sydney added its insurance run in the eighth as Jason Bour singled to score Chris Padgett, making the final advantage two runs, 6-4. 

 

Hampden-Sydney returns to action at 3 pm, Friday, April 22, as the Tigers play the loser of Thursday’s Virginia Wesleyan/Guilford contest.  Meanwhile, Bridgewater will play at 11 am against the loser of the Lynchburg/Washington and Lee game.
