Trinity Takes Weekend Series With Sunday's Win

San Antonio - Trinity's baseball team defeated Franklin & Marshall (PA) College 15-3 on Sunday afternoon to win two out of three games in this weekend series.

Trinity (10-5) won 6-1 in the opener, followed by a 5-7 loss in the second game of the Saturday doubleheader.  The Tigers broke open a 2-2 game with a seven-run fifth inning, followed by three-run innings in the seventh and eighth.

Bobby Zabor and Andreas Verrios each had three-hit games for the Tigers offensively, while Drew Bignall gave up just two runs - one earned - through seven innings to earn the win.

Bignall, who threw a two-hit shutout in his last outing, gave up just four hits in the game, striking out seven hitters and walking just one.

Zabor was 3-5 with one RBI and two runs scored, while Verrios was 3-4 - including a double - with three runs and one RBI.

Blake Holman had two hits in the game - one of which was a double - and drove in three runs.  Nick Vera was 2-2 with two RBI and four runs scored.  Vera also drew two walks, had a sacrifice fly, and stole his team-leading 13th base of the season.

Will Becker had two runs and two RBI, while Zach Fregosi also knocked in a pair of runs.  Relievers Evan Bronson, Matt Berning, and Ryan Poffenroth gave up just one unearned run on two hits in the final two innings.

Trinity will take on UW-Stout tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m.  The game will be the season opener for the Blue Devils.
