TLU's Late Rally Falls Short vs. Centenary

CLEBURNE, Texas -- Aric Vasquez (San Antonio/Brandeis) went 2-for-4 with a triple and solo home run, but the Texas Lutheran baseball team's ninth-inning comeback attempt fell short in a 2-1 defeat to Centenary College Friday night in the 2022 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) Baseball Championships at The Depot at Cleburne Station.

The two-seeded Bulldogs (28-13) will face fourth-seeded St. Thomas at 3:30 PM Saturday. All streaming and live stats links can be found on tlubulldogs.com.

Texas Lutheran scored its lone run in the ninth inning via Vasquez's solo home run, and had the tying run on first base when the game ended. 

The Gents (25-15) scored single runs in the first and ninth innings: scoring on a solo home run in the first and an RBI single in the ninth.

TLU starter Joe Burch (Geronimo/Navarro), who was named First Team All-SCAC earlier in the day, took the loss - allowing two runs on 12 hits over 8.1 innings of work. Burch would strike out seven batters and allow one walk.
