Baseball Recap: Randolph-Macon Academy Starts Season with Win on the Road

Thomas Glasgow and Finn Strabley made a big impact while hitting and pitching. Throwing, Glasgow pitched four innings while giving up three earned (and two unearned) runs off three hits. Meanwhile, Strabley struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off three hits (and not a single walk). At bat, Glasgow went 2-for-4 with two stolen bases and two RBI, while Strabley scored a run and stole a base while getting on base in three of his five plate appearances. Glasgow is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
