Bats Come Alive in Game Two to earn Split with Lindsey Wilson

LEBANON, Tenn.--Cumberland Softball splits with Lindsey Wilson to open the conference weekend falling in a pitcher's duel in game one 1-0 before run ruling the Blue Raiders in game two 9-1. 

Cumberland (14-10, 2-8 MSC) suffered a tough loss in game one as they couldn't string together any hits against Lindsey Wilson starter Kayden Murray. Murray tossed a complete game shutout limiting Cumberland to just four hits and punching out 10 batters. 

The Phoenix put two runners on in the first as Anna Lay and Abby Chappell each drew walks, but Murray picked up two big punchouts to strand two runners. 

Again in the third, the Phoenix put two runners on base. Lay led off the inning with a single, but was caught stealing at second to erase the threat. Evans drew a one-out walk, but Murray got the next two batters out. 

Kaitlin Higgins gave up her first hit of the game in the third, but to no avail. The Blue Raiders then got two big extra base hits in the fourth to get on the board. Elizabeth Funk hit a triple to left-center and came in to score on a double from Kelsis Bostock for the 1-0 lead. 

The run was all that Murray needed as she did the rest for Lindsey Wilson. The rest of the game Cumberland just put two runners on as they couldn't string any hits together. 

Higgins suffered the loss after allowing just five hits and one run. She struck out five batters. 

Game two was a different story. The bats got going early as Ashley Evans and Chappell each singled to set up a three run home run from Kenzie France for an early 3-0 lead. 

Cumberland held a 3-0 lead until the fourth when the Phoenix added another run. Sara Brogdon led off the inning with a single to left. With two outs, Gracie Arnemann drew a free pass and Lay dropped a perfect bunt for a base hit to load the bases. Evans delivered an 0-2 base hit up the middle to score Brogdon and extend the lead to 4-0. 

The Phoenix took advantage of a Lindsey Wilson error in the fifth. Jacey Hatfield reached on the mistake and worked her way around to third before scoring on an Abbie Peach ground out. 

Cumberland again got it going in the sixth. Lay reached on an error before Chappell doubled her home with a double off the center field wall. France singled in Chappell. Hatfield hit a single to put two runners on. Brylee Bartley laced a single to left that got through the left fielders' legs and allowed the two runs to score to enforce the run rule at 9-1.

Carley Clinard picked up the win in the circle tossing a complete game. Clinard gave up seven hits and one run and struck out two. 

The Phoenix and Blue Raiders will close out the series tomorrow with two games starting at noon. Cumberland will honor three seniors in between games for senior day festivities.
