Monarchs Split Baseball DH at Huntingdon

MONTGOMERY, Ala. –  Lucas Scott homered twice and drove in six runs in game two to help the Methodist baseball team to a split of a Saturday afternoon doubleheader at Huntingdon.

Methodist dropped game one, 11-5, and behind Scott stormed back for a 15-2 (7 INN) win in game two. 

In the nightcap, the Monarchs got back-to-back homers from Brennen Brown and Scott in the top of the first inning for a quick 2-0 lead. 

The Hawks answered with a pair of goals in the bottom of the first inning to tie the game at 2-2 before MU began to pull away. Scott drove in a run in the second with an RBI single, part of a four-run inning, and Tucker Criswell had a two-run single as MU went up 6-2. 

The Monarch lead swelled to 10-2 in the fifth inning on RBI singles by Brown and Scott, and Scott went deep for the second time in the seventh inning, a three-run shot that plated Brown and Matthias Carter, for a 13-2 lead, and MU put the finishing touches on then with  RBI base hits from Will May and Clay Richardson in the seventh. 

Tyler Hardee picked up the win (4-2), pitching all seven innings and allowing two runs on five hits with five strikeouts. 

Scott finished 4 for 5 with six RBI and two runs scored. Brown was 3 for 4, scored four runs and drove in two. Criswell was 2 for 2 with a walk, two RBI and a run scored.

In game one, the Monarchs started the scoring in the third inning. Matthias Carter led off with a walk and advanced to second on a wild pitch. He advanced to third on a sacrifice before crossing home plate on a fielding error by the short stop, 1-0. The Hawks tied the game in the bottom half of the frame as Headley singled and rounded the bases to score on an error, 1-1.

The Green and Gold manufactured three runs in the fifth inning as Alex Kachler reached base to start off the frame. He advanced on a sacrifice and a single by Brennan Brown and scored on  awild pitch. Lucas Scott doubled to right field to move B. Brown to third before scoring on a sacfirice fly from Tucker Criswell, 3-1. The Monarchs added one more run on an RBI single by Tyler Hardee. HC tied the score again before Pete Wildeboer gave MU a 5-4 lead in the sixth frame. The Hawks added three runs on two hits in the seventh and another four runs in the eighth to complete the 11-5 victory.
