Baseball Recap: Dresden Lions vs. Bradford Red Devils

After having lost a blowout in their previous game against Milan, Dresden was happy to have turned things around on Friday. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 3-1 win over the Bradford Red Devils. This was payback for Dresden, who suffered a 5-4 loss the last time these two teams met.

Cameron Schlicht spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned run on five hits and racked up nine Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't pitched less than seven innings in seven consecutive pitching appearances.

On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Nick Turnbow, who scored a run and stole two bases while getting on base in all three of his plate appearances. Landon Carter was another key contributor, scoring a run while going 2-for-3.

Dresden has been performing well recently as they've won nine of their last 12 matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 16-7 record this season. As for Bradford, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 20-10.

As of now, neither Dresden nor Bradford have any future games scheduled.
