Seven-Run Ninth Gives LC Baseball a 16-12 Win at Guilford

Box Score

GREENSBORO, NC – The Lynchburg College baseball team trailed 12-9 entering the final frame Sunday afternoon, but scored seven times in the ninth inning to out-slug Guilford College 16-12 in an Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) game.

LC plated two runs, but had two outs in their last at bats. Junior Jon Crews (Lynchburg, VA/Heritage) provided a go-ahead two-run single and the Hornets added three more insurance runs to seal the win.

Crews was 3-6 on the day with three RBI, as Lynchburg ripped 16 hits, and had nine other runners reach base on walks. Eric O’Brien (Roanoke, VA/Cave Spring) was 3-5 and David Gaines (Lynchburg, VA/Jefferson Forest) went 2-3 with a double and four RBI. Ronnie LaBrie (Vinton, VA/Staunton River) was 2-4 with two doubles and four RBI while Jeff Taylor (Lynchburg, VA/Heritage) and Jonathan Sewell (Charlottesville, VA/St. Anne’s Belfield) each had two hits. Joe Devlin (Ashburn, VA/Broad Run) earned the win in relief, throwing two innings, allowing just one hit and three strikeouts.

Chad Boone was 4-5 with a home run and six RBI for the Quakers (5-7/0-2 ODAC). Phil Drew also had four hits - one a triple.

The Hornets (8-2/2-0 ODAC) host Averett University Tuesday at 2 p.m. on Fox Field.
