Baseball Opens Three-Game Series With Win on Tuesday

San Antonio - The Trinity Tigers baseball team opened a three-game non-conference series with a 15-7 victory Tuesday night over the Brandeis Judges at E.M. Stevens Field.

Trinity, which won its sixth straight game, improved to 7-1. Brandeis now stands at 0-2. The two teams will meet again at 7 p.m. Friday, and 1 p.m. Saturday.

The Judges scored first in the 3-hour, 15-minute game, with one run in the top of the third inning. But the Tigers countered with seven runs in the bottom half of the inning, keyed by a two-run home run by first-year second baseman Kevin Clements, his second of the season.

After Trinity scored a run in the fourth, and Brandeis added three in the sixth, the Tigers produced three runs in the bottom of the inning - highlighted by a two-run round tripper by junior catcher Kyle Felix, his second homer of the campaign. The Judges would score three times total in the seventh and eighth, and Trinity had a four-run seventh inning that put the home team up 15-6 at the time.

Tiger sophomore right-hander Ben Klimesh of Wilmette, Ill. (New Trier), was the starting pitcher, and captured the victory. Klimesh (2-0) hurled six innings, and allowed four earned runs on six hits, fanning seven batters and walking just one.

Felix hit 2-4 with four RBIs and three runs in the game, pushing him to the 150-hits plateau in his career.

Sophomore left fielder Nick Pappas of Los Angeles (Loyola) batted 3-4, with two RBIs, two runs, and two doubles. Senior first baseman Evan Jones of Hillsborough, Calif. (Junipero Serra), accounted for three RBIs. First-year shortstop Jonathan Hall of Kenilworth, Ill. (New Trier), produced four of the Tigers' runs, while batting 2-4.
