MCGOWANS BLAST, TIMELY OFFENSE PUSH EXPRESS PAST RIVER BANDITS

Marshall McGowan (Western Carolina) drove a 3-1 fastball deep into the Strasburg night, tying the game in the 6th and jump-starting a late offensive surge. The Express would go on to score 8 times in the late frames and survived a scare, beating the visiting River Bandits 12-9 on Monday night.

McGowan would finish 2-for-5 on the night with a home run, a double, 4 RBI, and a run scored. Baylor Roberts (UAB) had a big night offensively as well, finishing 2-for-4 with 4 RBI, 2 runs scored, and a stolen base. Roberts 2-run single in the bottom of the 7th put the Express ahead for good, leading 9-7. Tommy Kirwan (Wofford) went 3-for-6 with a double.

Strasburg had contributions up and down the lineup. Michael Poltar (Hudson Valley CC) had a 2-run single and also scored twice. Madden Williams (Samford) went 1-for-2 with an RBI, run scored, and 2 walks. JW Kohlmeyer (VMI) was 2-for-3 with a double, 3 runs scored, and an RBI to go with a stolen base. Rounding out the offensive attack was Wade Shelley (Auburn) who had a hit and run scored to go with 2 walks.

The Express staff battled the Woodstock lineup all night. Luke Godwin (Anderson University) stabilized the game in the late frames, posting 3 perfect innings and earning his first win of the summer. Godwin would strike out 6 of the 9 batters he faced. Things then got tight in the 9th with Woodstock scoring twice and loading the bases. But with the go-ahead run at the plate, Noah LaFine (VMI) got him to pop up, securing the win for Strasburg.

The Express have an off day tomorrow. Playing at First Bank Park will be the Strasburg High School baseball AND softball teams in the state quarterfinals at 6pm. Please go support these young men and women. Good luck Rams!

Caden Haywood (Western Carolina) paced the offense with a huge night at the dish. Following a brief Front Royal rally in the top of the 3rd to make it a 4-3 ballgame, Haywood took the 2nd pitch he saw deep in the trees of the left field for a 2-run home run. He would finish 4-for-5 with 5 RBI and a stolen base.

Wade Shelly (Auburn) collected 3 hits in his Express debut, also scoring 3 times and swiping a bag. Sam Brown (Gulf Coast State College) went 1-for-2 with a bases loaded double off the wall.
