Panthers fall short at Oglethorpe in Baseball action

ATLANTA, Ga. – The LaGrange College baseball team lost 8-1 at Oglethorpe University in non-conference action on Friday night at Hermance Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. The game was called in the bottom of the sixth inning due to lightning concerns.

THE BASICS
Score:                  LaGrange 1, Oglethorpe 8
Records:             Panthers 9-5 | Stormy Petrels 5-4

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Sensing the oncoming weather hazards, the Stormy Petrels pounced on the visiting Panthers early and often, plating across four runs in the bottom of the second. LC had previously taken an early 1-0 lead thanks to a throwing error which scored junior catcher Nicholas Ford (Canton, Ga.)
  • After four more Oglethorpe runners had scored across the third and fifth innings, a lightning delay halted things in the bottom of the sixth. The game would ultimately be called as the Panthers dropped just their fifth contest of the season.
  • Freshman pitcher Beau Collier (Labelle, Fla.) was credited with the loss, while Oglethorpe's Tate Henderson (Chamblee, Ga.) received the nod as the winning pitcher.
UP NEXT
  • LaGrange is back on the field on Saturday when they host Oglethorpe in a 12:00 p.m. doubleheader to decide the series.
