Dawgs play long ball but can't keep the Cougars off the bases. Dinger's by Eric Hughes, Clint VanTilborg, and Matt Hills are not enough to take down Kempner. With the score 7 - 4 going into the bottom of the 5th, it looked like a win for the Bulldogs. Kempner used 3 singles and one error to put up 4 runs and take the lead after 5 innings 8 - 4. Dawgs went quietly in the 6th and 7th only managing a hit by Luke Mulcahey with 2 outs in the 7th.
Eleven Cougar hits and 5 Bulldog errors lead to 15 runs. Dawgs need to shore up the "D" and pound out more hits against Bush on Friday.

· Catcher Matt Hills 2 for 3 with a homerun and single, 3B Luke Mulcahey
