Rensselaer's game on Friday was a loss, but they didn't let that memory haunt them on Monday. They had just enough and edged out the Watervliet Cannoneers 3-2. This was payback for the Rams, who suffered a 7-6 loss the last time these two teams met.
Joshua Kretzschmar made a splash no matter where he played. He struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off three hits (and not a single walk). Kretzschmar was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with two RBI and one double.
Kretzschmar wasn't the only one making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Liam Deeb, who went 1-for-3 with one stolen base and one run.
