Baseball: Panthers stop error-prone Oglethorpe 6-3

Box Score

ATLANTA, Ga. - LaGrange stopped error-prone Oglethorpe 6-3 at Anderson Field on Monday. The Panthers ended a two-game losing streak in upping their record to 12-21.

The Panthers took advantage of five Oglethorpe (17-22) errors that led to five unearned runs.

The Panthers staked starter Daniel Garrett to a 4-0 lead through three innings. Garrett, making his first start of the season, pitched four innings.

The Panthers got three of the runs in the first inning. Casey Bell reached on an error, then Chris Laye and Alec Redden got back-to-back singles to load the bases.

Cain Sauls flyed out to center, allowing Bell to score the first run. After Kyle Nerbonne walked to reload the bases, Keith Sims drove in two more runs with the two-out base hit up the middle.

In the third, Laye led off the inning with a single down the left field line. Redden flew out, but the throw from the outfield got away, allowing Laye to go to third. Laye came home as Sauls grounded to short.

The Stormy Petrels got two runs off Garrett in the fourth and an unearned run off reliever Blake Schuck (1-2) in the fifth to cut the Panthers' lead to 4-3.

The Panthers got a pair of runs in the eighth to make it 6-3. Sauls walked with one out and Nerbonne doubled down the right field line.

Sauls scored on a wild pitch as Nerbonne moved over to third on the play. Sims reached on an error as Nerbonne came home to make it 6-3.

Schuck pitched into the ninth. The Stormy Petrels loaded the bases with one out. Gage Mooney came on for Schuck and got a game-ending double play to record his first save of the season.

The Panthers host Emory on Tuesday at 7 p.m.
