Baseball loses playoff heartbreaker to Roger Bacon

From today's Enquirer:

Roger Bacon 8, Wyoming 7, Division II sectional:

Host Roger Bacon erased a 7-1 deficient in the seventh inning, when senior pinch-hitter Eric Brunner recorded a two-out, three-RBI double against Wyoming in the Division II Sectional tournament, Thursday night.

"It was pretty much the way that we have played this year," said Roger Bacon head coach Tim McCoy. "We haven't made any big comebacks, but our guys are persistent and senior leadership is great."

McCoy said he inserted Brunner into the game because of his commitment during his four years with the program. McCoy didn't want his veteran to sit out what could have been his final game.

Senior shortstop Rian Bien switched positions and pitched the final three innings earning his first win of the season.
