Burbank, IL (April 4, 2012) - The Rams (5-6; 3-0) slugged out 12 hits in their 15-1 victory over Argo on Tuesday at Czarnecki Field. The offense exploded for ten runs in the first inning on RBI doubles by both Dan Meskill (2 for 3; 2B; 2 RBI) and Leo Hernandez (2 for 3; 2B; RBI) and a bases-clearing triple from David Beltran (3 for 3; 3B; 4 RBI).
"Before the game, Coach Morack told the team jokingly to put up a ten spot on the scoreboard in the first inning, and amazingly, the kids did!" said Coach Erickson. "We swung the bats really well today. It was a tough day to hit with the wind blowing in, but we hit a lot of line drives and hard ground balls up the middle throughout the game."
Josh Arnold (3-1) picked up the win on the mound, going the distance and allowed no earned runs on five hits.
After the game, the team took a trip to the University of Illinois-Chicago to see the Flames take on Indiana State University. "Many of our kids love baseball, and it was a great experience for them to see how the game is played at the next level. We have another trip like this planned for Notre Dame in May."
