[July 02, 2008]  MASON CITY -- Burgrabe's Legal Eagles split a Mustang League doubleheader in Mason City on Tuesday night, winning the first game 14-9 but losing the nightcap 14-13.

In the first game, starting pitcher Reilly Gallagher (3-1) struck out the final batter with the bases loaded to preserve the victory. She allowed nine hits and fanned two, and she helped herself defensively with three assists.

The Eagles had only five hits, one each by Gallagher, Kimberly Rhoades, Emily Payne, McKenzie O'Donohue and Jazzminn Morecraft, but were aided by three-RBI performances by O'Donohue and Mikaela Meagher and two RBIs from Danielle Burgrabe, Mikayla Smith and Morecraft. Heather Curry and Payne each added an RBI for the Eagles.

In the second game, Emily Payne made her pitching debut, struck out one and did not allow a hit in two innings of work. She was relieved in the second inning by Kimberly Rhoades (0-1), who suffered the loss after Mason City came back from a 13-3 deficit by tallying six runs in the second, four before the change occurred, and five runs in the third. Rhoades exhibited solid control, allowing only two walks, but three hits and two defensive mistakes cost the Eagles the final runs in the game.

Gallagher was 2-2, including a double and two RBIs. Other hits came from Curry, Payne and Rhoades. Others with two RBIs were Smith, Payne, O'Donohue, Meagher and Burgrabe, and Rhoades tallied one RBI.

The Eagles are now 4-6 on the season.
