CROWN
POINT (05-09-2018 ) After giving-up a run in the top of the first inning,
the Crown Point Bulldogs responded, in a huge way.
They sent 11 to the plate in the bottom of the first, scoring five runs on their
way to a 7-3 win over the Merrillville Pirates.
Victory came early to the Bulldogs because of rain in the top of the sixth. With
the Pirates hitting, a torrential downpour forced the calling of the game,
becoming official due to play beyond the fifth inning.
After scoring twice in the bottom of the second, the Bulldogs gave-up two runs
to the Pirates in the top of the fourth.
In four of the five innings the Bulldogs came-up, they got the lead-off hitter
on base and everyone in the line-up reached safely at least once.
This marked the second time the Bulldogs defeated the Pirates in two days, both
in shortened contests.
Crown Point won 10-0 at Merrillville, called after five innings due to the mercy
rule.
Our next Internet radio baseball broadcast on USA-365.com will be Friday,
May 11 when the Bulldogs host the Hobart Brickies. The pregame show starts at
6:45 p.m. CDT with first pitch scheduled for 7:00 p.m. CDT.
