Rockville visited the Greencastle baseball diamond Wednesday.

The Tiger Cubs his the ball well but with that, and even a Holden King triple couldn't get a Greencastle victory. They lost to the Rox 10-4.

Senior Seth Brown pitched four innings giving up seven runs on four hits.

He recorded three strikeouts, five walks and five errors. Junior Kaleb Fleming pitched two innings giving up no runs on two hits with two strike outs. Junior Tanner Nicholson pitched just one inning giving up three runs on tow hits, one walk and two errors.

Senior Brant Mangrun and sophomore Anthony Rossok had two hits each. Brown hit a single, Tanner Nicholson got a double and Holden King scored a triple for the Tiger Cubs. Greencastle was unable to score after its first run in the first inning.

While the Rox managed runs in each of their first innings, the Tiger cubs couldn't squeeze out their second run until the sixth inning.

That inning was big for the Tiger Cubs.

They got three runs across homeplate but couln't hold Rockville at that point.

Rockville scored three more runs in the seventh and Greencastle couldn't manage any more for the game.
