Rivera’s Gem Leads Virginia Wesleyan Past
LYNCHBURG,
VA – Virginia Wesleyan’s Chris
Rivera tossed a complete game, seven hit gem to lift the Marlins to a 1-0 over
Bridgewater at the 2006 Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) Baseball
Tournament.
With the win, Virginia Wesleyan (21-20) advances to Sunday’s Championship
Round which is slated for a 1:00 p.m. first pitch.
Rivera, who entered the game with a win and a save already in the tournament,
struck out seven, issued one free pass and did not allow an Eagle runner to
reach third base.
VWC got the lone run of the game in the visitor half of the second inning when
Ozz Dhramapitaks reached on a two-out bunt single and scored on a double by C.J.
Rhodes.
Bridgewater
(28-11-1) starter Matt Nolen
was the tough-luck loser after surrendering just five hits and striking out six
in a complete game effort.
BC will play at 7:00 p.m. Saturday against the winner of
2006 ODAC Tournament
