Baseball Drops Series Opener at North Central

RECAP

NAPERVILLE, Ill. - The Elmhurst University baseball team dropped the opening game of a three-game set with North Central College, 10-8, Friday afternoon on the road.

Elmhurst (10-27, 4-14 CCIW) held a lead through the first four innings, but late-inning pitching struggles and a come-from-behind effort fell short and caused the Jays to drop the series opener with the Cardinals (16-22, 9-9 CCIW).

Jaden Mitchell led the Bluejays at the plate with three RBI's, while Ryan Thrawl and Erik Malott each knocked in two RBI's. Carson Gnade provided the other RBI for the Jays.

Charlie Smith started the game for the Jays, providing four innings and giving up five runs while adding seven strikeouts. 

UP NEXT

The Bluejays return to Butterfield Park for their final games of the season, hosting North Central for a doubleheader on Saturday, May 4 beginning at 1:00 p.m.
