OCONOMOWOC, Wis. — The Bryant & Stratton College baseball team took on the College of DuPage Chaparrals on April 13 after defeating MATC the day before. Carter Szohr took the mound for his fifth start of the season and delivered a beautiful outing. However, DuPage took the second game of the series by four runs. 

Game 1 | Bryant & Stratton 2, COD 0

Carter Szohr started the doubleheader with two clean innings, but DuPage answered with two scoreless innings. That was until the bottom of the third inning. Nolan Warzynski started the inning with a walk, and Brayden Pleau brought him in after Alex Esser moved him over. Jedvier Garcia followed that with another RBI, driving in Pleau, who stole second.  

The Chaparrals threatened in the following innings, but they were unable to score any runs, and the Bobcats gained another win.

Notes

• This was Szohr’s first complete game shutout. He also struck out six batters.

Game 2 | COD 10, Bryant & Stratton 6

The second game was a different story as both teams barreled up the ball, combining for 20 hits. DuPage jumped out to a 3-1 lead through two innings but opened it up in the fifth after scoring five runs. The Bobcats put up a crooked number in their half of the fifth with an RBI double from Tommy Howard and a two-run home run from Garcia. 

DuPage led 8-6 entering the seventh inning and scored two insurance runs. Bryant & Stratton failed to answer, and the 27th game of the 2023-24 season came to a close. 

Notes

• Garcia and Carlos Walta went a combined 4-for-7 and recorded three RBIs.
• The Bobcats used six different pitchers.
