Varsity Baseball v. Deerfield Academy

Eaglebrook lost 11-2 to Deerfield Academy on Saturday afternoon.

Impressively enough, four Eaglebrook pitchers only allowed four hits combined in 36 total at-bats throughout the game. Their collective BAA (batting average against) was a pristine .182.

Walks, however, were the deciding factor. Eaglebrook pitchers struggled with their command and efficiency all day, hitting four batters and walking ten, most of whom went on to score.

Eaglebrook's offense scattered seven hits throughout the game, but it was not enough to create many scoring opportunities for ourselves.

Sam Born singled in the second, and later reached home on a Jack Denhart single up the middle. Jake Presnal and Cort Coleman also singled in the top of the 5th, with Cort scoring on a throwing error by Deerfield's catcher attempting to throw out Diego Rosenberg at second base.

All in all, it was a tough weekend for the Brookies, but we look forward to going back to basics and regrouping this week. We have a home game against Brattleboro on Wednesday and one away at Suffield Saturday afternoon.
