Game 32: at St. Mary's - May 4, 1:00pm at Max Molock Field
Quick-Hit Cobbers Sweep
St. Mary's to Keep Pace in the MIAC Playoff Race.
The two victories keeps Concordia bunched up with a group of four teams for the three remaining conference playoff spots. The Cobbers are now 10-6 in league play and tied for third place in the MIAC with Augsburg. Concordia is only one game behind second-place St. Olaf and one game ahead of fifth-place Gustavus. The Cobbers inch one step closer to the .500 mark with their overall record. They are now 15-17 on the year. St. Mary's sees their last chance for the playoffs walk out the door, as they are now 7-11 in the MIAC and 15-13 overall. In the first game, Concordia scored nine times before the Cardinals were able to answer with a pair of runs in the fifth inning. The Cobbers scored a single run in the first inning and then added four more to push the lead to 5-0 after the first two innings. Concordia then added four more runs in the fourth inning to give Cobber starting pitcher Bryan Romsa a comfortable 9-0 lead. Staked to his biggest margin of the season, Romsa contained the St. Mary's hitters for three runs on seven hits. He struck out four to pick up his team-leading fifth win of the season. Since the Cobbers threw out the blue plans for the game by scoring early and often, the lead offensive attack was also a complete 180-degree turn from the norm. Entering the game, the top four hitters in the lineup usually carried the load and drove in the majority of runs. In the opener on Wednesday, the bottom five players in the order combined to pick up eight of the team's 11 hits and drove in five of the nine runs. Nick Esala, Ryan Emter and Aaron Eckhoff all collected two hits apiece. The number five, six and seven hitters in the batting order went 6-for-12, scored four runs and drove in three. Scott Halupczok (eighth in the lineup) and Bryant Bergeson (ninth) each added key hits that led to runs. It took Concordia a little longer to get going in the second game. After strolling through two scoreless innings, Concordia exploded for three runs in the third inning. It was the second straight game that the Cobbers scored first, but only the eighth time they have scored the first run in the game in their 17 league contests. The lead was quickly lost as St. Mary's countered for four runs in the bottom of the inning. After cruising through the first two innings, giving up only one hit, Cobber starting pitcher Blake Trenbeath was roughed up for four runs on three hits in the third inning alone. From that point on, the Cardinals would only collect one more hit in the game as Trenbeath pitched another six strong innings to pick up his third straight victory. St. Mary's held a 4-3 lead until the sixth inning when Halupczok picked up a key two-out single that scored Esala from third base. The biggest noise of the day from the top of the order came in the top of the seventh. After leadoff hitter Matt Youngquist started the inning with a single, and then advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by Billy DeNet, Chris Klabo broke out of a recent hitting slump by smashing a ball over the leftfield fence to give Concordia a 6-4 lead. Concordia closer Josh Dietz finished off the game in short order. Coming on in relief in the bottom of the seventh, Dietz induced a ground ball to second and then struck out the next two batters to pick up his fourth save of the year. On the day, Esala was most productive Cobber at the plate. The Concordia designated hitter was 5-for-8 with three runs scored and two RBIs. Esala improved his season batting average total to .342. The two multiple-hit games brings his season total to eight in that category, and he has now hit safely in four straight games. Concordia has two tough series
left in conference play. The Cobbers will host Bethel on Saturday, May
7 at 1:00pm at the Jake Christiansen Athletic Complex, and then finish
the year by playing Augsburg on Monday, May 8 at noon at Faber Field in
St. Cloud in a game that was postponed from April 26. Currently, the Royals
are two games behind Concordia in the MIAC with a 9-9 record and the Auggies
are tied with the Cobbers for third place.
