The Lancaster Bible College baseball team had its three-game win streak ended on Monday, as Stevenson defeated the Chargers, 19-6 at Charger Field. Lancaster Bible falls to 6-10 overall this season, while the Mustangs improved to 14-13.
 
How it Happened: Stevenson scored three unearned runs in the top of the first, but Lancaster Bible senior Will Welsh, this week's NEAC Player of the Week, got all of the runs back with one swing of the bat in the bottom of the inning, as he crushed a three-run bomb to left-center field. The Mustangs answered with three more runs in the second inning, and tacked on another in the third for a 7-3 lead.
 
Stevenson's Jordan Moore ripped a grand slam in the fifth inning to extend the visitors' lead to 11-3, and the Mustangs scored twice more in the inning as well. Lancaster Bible cut into its deficit in the bottom of the seventh when Adam Cohick hit a sacrifice fly that scored Nate McFarland, and Beau Heagy grounded out later in the inning to score Jacob Schenck.
 
The Mustangs scored three more times in the eighth, and after a Josh Saufley home run in the bottom half of the inning, Stevenson added three more runs in the ninth for the 13-run victory.
