MAC Baseball Sweeps Metro
(Park Hills) The Mineral Area College baseball team completed its first double header sweep in nearly a month today by beating Metro 5-1 and 5-3 at Hal Loughary Field in Park Hills. Greenville redshirt freshman Blakeney Kearbey threw a complete game two hitter in game one. He struck out six and walked two. The first hit he gave up was wiped away with a double play…
Tommy Van de Sanden not only played slick defense, but he also went 2 for 3 with a two run single in the third…
Assistant coach Jordan Thompson says Van de Sanden gave them some clutch hitting…
The Wolves only run came from a solo shot by Kevin Hardin to start the fourth.
MAC won the second game 5-3 to improve to 21-13 on the year and 9-13 in Region 16 play.
Metro falls to 9-25 and 6-16 in the region. Up next for the Cardinals is a four game set with Three Rivers. It’s scheduled for two in Poplar Bluff on Thursday and two at home on Saturday, but they are looking at the possibility of shuffling the schedule due to anticipated rain.
