The Batesville Bulldogs JV Baseball extended their winning streak to 3 games in a row as they took down conference foe Lawrenceburg on Monday night by a final score of 6-4.
Nate Eckstein got the ball and pitched a complete game allowing four runs, two of which were earned runs. The Bulldogs only got 5 hits but 4 of them came with runners in scoring position. Seth Gausman racked up 3 RBI’s on two hits. Brayden Linkel, Devin Scripture, and Garrett Lee each cashed in a run batted in. Although the defense was shaky at times but the Bulldogs defense made huge plays when they needed to including a diving catch by Lleyton Ratcliffe, a huge outfield assist by Garrett Lee throwing out a runner at second, and a game ending double play with the bases loaded.
The Bulldogs improve to 5-3 on the season and look to make it 4 straight wins when they play Lawrenceburg at BHS field on Thursday at 5:30.
