Auburndale, FL- Liam Nolan tossed a complete game and Jeff Bink went 3-3 with 3 RBI's as the MCLA Baseball team won their third straight game defeating the Colby Sawyer Chargers 6-1 this morning in Auburndale, FL. MCLA is now 4-2 on the season while the Chargers drop to 2-5 overall.
MCLA got on the board in the first inning as Bink collected the first of his RBI's scoring Christian Seariac with a single to center for an early 1-0 lead. They would add two more runs in the third frame with Bink once again providing the key blow.
He would drill a run scoring triple to right field scoring Seariac again and then came around as the Charger throw from the outfield was misplayed giving MCLA a 3-0 advantage. The Chargers finally got a run off Nolan in the fourth inning on Drew Inglesi's RBI groundout making it 3-1.
The score would remain that way until the sixth. Nolan worked out of a jam in the top half before the Trailblazers put the game away with a three run sixth. Nick DiSanti singled and Ben Durland was hit by a pitch to start the inning and when Seariac reached on a bunt single the bases were loaded without an out. A pair of wild pitches brought in two runs and then Bink lofted a sacrifice fly for the games final run.
The rest was up to Nolan. He gave up a hit in the seventh but slammed the door with his sixth strikeout of the afternoon. He scattered 6 hits and walked a pair to earn his first win of the season (1-0).
Seariac went 2-3 but scored three times out of the leadoff spot for MCLA, who outhit the Chargers 8-6.
