LSU-S Baseball Splits With Texas Wesleyan Rams on Saturday
Saturday was a busy day in South Shreveport, on the LSU-Shreveport campus.
Besides a big basketball game, there was also a doubleheader at Pilot Field.
In Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader, the Pilots fell to the Rams 7-1.
Texas Wesleyan's Mitch McLeod got the win, while the Pilots' David Diaz was tagged with the loss.
The Pilots only run of Game 1 came in the bottom of the second inning when Parker Hebert sent Kade Billeaudeaux home. At that point, the score was 2-1.
Game 2 was a different story when the Pilots edged the Rams 7-6.
Pilots' coach Al Cantwell sent Dustin Doucette to the mound. Doucette struck out seven batters in five innings.
Offensively, LSUS had a five run bottom of the fifth inning. Brendan Meade began the rally in the frame after hitting a two run single to score two runs.
Tuesday, the Pilots will battle crosstown rival Centenary at Pilot Field at 6 p.m.
