Win Streak Snapped at 13 as Racers Lose Twinbill at Cleary

HOWELL, MI - The WHAC's hottest offense stalled over two games at Lake Trust Stadium. UNOH (16-12, 13-3) saw their 13-game winning streak come to an end with an 8-1 loss in game one. Cleary (20-14, 8-7) plated their only two runs of game two in their first at-bat, but it was enough to hold off the Racers 2-1.

Game 1: Cleary 8 UNOH 1 (7 Innings)

UNOH was held to a season low three hits with their lone run coming in the fifth thanks to a Darius Freeman triple and an Alex Velasco RBI single. Cleary's offense scored two in the first, one in the third and five in the fifth for the 8-1 win.

Michael Joyce (1-2) got the start and the loss giving up seven runs, five earned, off four hits striking out four and walking one over three and a third innings. Nick Johnson and Tony Manzano combined for the final two and two-thirds with just one run and two hits given up.

Game 2: Cleary 2 UNOH 1

The Cougars' two runs both came in the home first as the game became a pitcher's duel. The next seven innings saw the teams combine for just five hits as the game entered the ninth still 2-0. A walk, a stolen base and a single linked together to score the only run for UNOH. The Racers got two more runners on but couldn't find the tying run.

Sinjon Bobolia (0-3) went two and a third off the start to take the loss. Bobolia gave up two runs off two hits with three walks and two strikeouts.
