Horner scored on the second balk of the inning by Northwood starter Andrew Morrison. Shortstop Kevin Conlin then walked, stole second and scored on a two-run home run by Zach Sherwood. The ball that Sherwood hit bounced into a weed-filled berm in left center and by the time, Neil Buckley could find the ball, Sherwood had circled the bases. The Northwood field is not enclosed by a fence. He also had a two-run single in the second inning.
Baseball is just a really funny game.
But Friday, it was a different story. After Tuesday, we were very disappointed. They got after us on Tuesday and we lost it early. We knew we had to come out here and prove that we could win. I think we were a little bit more focused and a little more intense early in the game.
