La Roche 2 Baldwin Wallace 0

Tristen Tinney was nearly unhittable on the hill in Game 2. The Redhawk offense was limited to just two runs, but terrific pitching and timely hitting lifted them to victory.

Tinney used a double play to get out of a jam in the top of the first. Professori gave the Redhawks a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first with a sacrifice fly. Tinney allowed just one base runner over the final six innings and Roebuck added a two-out RBI single in the seventh to give the Redhawks breathing room.

Spina scored both runs and Tinney earned the win.
