Make it two in a row for the Dirtbags

For just the second time this year LBSU (6-9) won consecutive games.

Both times the streak included wins over LMU (8-12), this time 12-6.

Tuesday night at Blair the bats came alive again with the Lions in the other dugout.

Eight of the 15 Dirtbag hits came from the corner infield spots as both third baseman Rylan Sandoval and first baseman Taylor Krick went 4-for-5 and scored three runs.

Krick, TJ Mittelstaedt and Brennan Metzger all had a pair of RBI's.

Manny McElroy (1-1) got the win in relief of Jeff Lease. Lease didn't make out of the third and gave up five runs but the Dirtbags came back.

For McElroy it was his first win in nearly two years.

The Dirtbags stole five bases in the game.

Mike Weathers was thrown out of the game in the sixth for arguing a play at second base.

LBSU will travel to Kansas tomorrow to take on the Wichita State Shockers Friday-Sunday.
