PC Loses Series Finale at Davidson, 11-5

DAVIDSON, N.C. - For the second consecutive day, Presbyterian College baseball fell to the Davidson Wildcats on the road by an 11-5 deficit.  The loss is PC's fourth straight defeat after the Blue Hose won their home opener a week ago. 

After giving up two runs in the first inning, the Blue Hose answered by scoring a run when Nate Horton took advantage of some wild Davidson pitching in the second.  On the next pitch after Horton crossed the plate, Gabe Grammer went yard to right field for a two-run home run. 

In the third, PC added to the lead when Mack Hite ripped a double down the left field line.  He was plated on Horton's single up the middle to give the visitors a 4-2 lead. 

Unfortunately for the Blue Hose, the tables were about to turn in the bottom of the third inning.  Davidson scored twice in the frame to tie the game up.  In the fourth and fifth innings, the Wildcats scored two in each inning to run the score out to 8-4. 

PC answered with a run in the sixth as Grammer's third RBI of the afternoon sent Ryan Morris home to bring the margin down to three at 8-5. 

The Wildcats hit their third home run of the game in the eighth inning as part of a three-run trip to bat.  The insurance runs extended the lead out to 11-5.

Andrew Foushee earned the start on the mound and worked four and a third innings, surrendering eight runs on nine hits.  He was saddled with the loss, his first of the season.  Rodney Scruggs worked the remaining balance of the game (three and two-thirds) and gave up three runs, two earned off four hits. 

The Blue Hose will look to snap the four-game losing streak on Tuesday night at I-26 rival, South Carolina.  The game will start at 7 p.m. in Columbia.
