The Railers watched the game slip away early
and they just couldn't recover against a group of powerful
hitting seniors from Morton. Morton scored in the second, third
and fifth innings off Lincoln pitchers. Lincoln scored their
only run in the bottom of the fifth inning.
Cameron Glick was the starting pitcher for Lincoln. He went two
and two-thirds innings, allowing seven runs on four hits and
striking out two. Austin Sparrow and Bryce Watkins entered the
game from the bullpen, throwing three innings and one and
one-third innings respectively.
Drew Singleton, Noah Funk, Brenden Eigenbrod and Jordan Jacobs
each managed one hit to lead Lincoln.
The Railers will travel to Normal Friday afternoon to take on
Normal Community at 4:30 p.m. at the Corn Crib.
On Saturday the Railers will play a conference doubleheader at
Mount Zion. Game one is set for 11:00 am with game two scheduled
for 1:00 p.m.
