Brookdale Baseball Splits With The Mighty Oaks

Penns Grove, NJ - Brookdale baseball continued their three game series with the the Mighty Oaks of Salem Community College well into the evening in a 13-7, 9-7 split double-header.

Freshman, Briant Bazydlo (2-1), earned the win for the Blues in game one, with his three pitched innings and four strikeouts.

The second game for the Blues did not go as smooth. The Blues had a 7-2 lead in the 4th inning, but the 5th brought errors, and the Mighty Oaks capitalized. Freshman DH, John Wade, drove in three RBI's, and Alex Ungar added one for his 8th on the day, and Nicholas Papageorge helped with an RBI as well. Both Matthew Granato and freshman center fielder, Christian Bauman, each had a double, while Granato grabbed two more stolen bases, four in the DH, in the loss.
