Warriors’ rally falls short; EP beats BV
By SVN Sports Staff
Nate Asbury pitched six strong innings and ripped a pair of doubles, but it wasn’t enough to help the Sterling Golden Warriors on Monday in a 2-1 loss to Alleman in Rock Island.
Alleman scored both runs and had two of its six hits before the Warriors even got an out in the first inning, but Asbury (3-3) settled in and allowed only one Pioneer beyond first base the rest of the way. He had four strikeouts and walked one, allowing one earned run in six innings.
Dan Robinson drove in Drew Neubauer on a bases-loaded fielder’s choice in the third inning, but Sterling (14-11) couldn’t score again.
