MILWAUKEE — Left-hander Jack Grable took the mound for Bryant & Stratton College on March 30, a day after the Bobcats defeated the Prairie State College Pioneers.

He started the contest against the College of Lake County Lancers with a 1-2-3 inning, and Alex Esser recorded a double and the first hit for the Bobcats. Grable didn't let the College of Lake County Lancers score.

Brayden Pleau came to the plate and nailed a double to left field. After a ground ball advanced Pleau to third, Decan Koback went to the plate and drove him in with a sacrifice fly. 

Grable and the Bobcats held the Lancers at bay until the top of the fifth inning, when they scored on a wild pitch. That was Grable's last inning of work, and he finished with six strikeouts, one walk and one hit in five innings.

Jordan Pope was the next Bobcat pitcher to step onto the mound and worked through the inning unscathed. However, Bryant & Stratton couldn't bring a run across, so Josh Opiola went to work on the bump. He surrendered one hit, struck one batter out and gave the Bobcats an opportunity to win in the home half of the seventh.

With a walk from Tom Hunt and a single from Pleau, the Bobcats put the winning run on second, and the hero from Friday's doubleheader, Ryan Weed, came to the plate. On a 1-2 count, Weed singled to left field and brought in Brogan Hicks, who was pinch-running for Hunt.

The first win on Saturday was the Bobcats' fifth straight win.
