Marist and Stagg squared off in some playoff action on Thursday, but Marist had to settle for second. They wound up with the same score they had in their last game (9-7), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest loss they have suffered since April 8th.
Collin Lawlor was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he struck out seven batters over six innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off four hits (and not a single walk). He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one walk in nine consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Tommy Hosty and Joey Gumuls did some serious damage despite the final result: Hosty went 2-for-6 with one home run and two RBI, while Gumuls went 3-for-5 with one triple, one run, and one RBI. Another player making a difference was Charlie Dunneback, who went 2-for-5 with two doubles and one RBI.
