Crusaders drop the doubleheader to the Tigers

GEORGETOWN, Ky. -- The Madonna University baseball team would lose both games on Thursday, February 15th. The Crusaders traveled to Georgetown, Kentucky to take on Georgetown College. In game one the Crusaders would lose 1-3 in the ninth inning off a walk-off and in game two would lose 1-3.   

Game 1:

Entering game one the Crusaders attacked early after a leadoff walk to Payton Mazzola. Mazzola would advance to second on a passed ball which allowed for Nick Sandiha Jr. to drive in the RBI single to take a 1-0 lead after the first inning. Georgetown would answer in the second inning to make it a 1-1 game. The remainder of the game was a pitching and defensive duel between the Crusaders and Tigers as Riley Vermander would get the start for the Crusaders going 3.2 innings allowing only two hits with two strikeouts. Luke Spicer would take over for Vermander going for 5 innings allowing only five hits with two strikeouts. The game would remain 1-1 until the bottom of the ninth inning when Georgetown would hit a 2 run walk off homer to defeat the Crusaders 1-3.

INSIDE THE NUMBERS:

 
  • Mazzola would go 2-3 with one run scored and a walk.
  • Sandiha Jr. would go 1-3 with an RBI and a walk.
  • Nick Krol went 1-3 with a single.

Game 2:

The visiting Crusaders again were the first ones to score in game 2, as they looked to split the series with the Tigers. Again the same pair for the Crusaders would score the first run of the game. Mazzola would lead the 4th inning off with a single and then advance to second on a fielder's choice. Again, Sandiha Jr. would step up as he would pick up the RBI on a double to left field to give the Crusaders a 1-0 lead.  Georgetown would answer the Crusaders in the bottom of the fifth scoring three runs on four hits to make it a 3-1 game which would end up being the final as the Crusaders struggled to find offense in the final three innings.
