Brad Beaubouef suffered the loss. In 5.1 innings, he surrendered seven runs — one earned — on four hits with three walks and fanned six.
“Brad Beaubouef finds out at the last minute we needed him to start on the mound, and he responded greatly,” Cardinal Lumber coach Ryan Jensen said Thursday. “He really threw well tonight, and if we could have played average defense behind him, then we win. I was really excited by his outing.”
Offensively, Brennen Gouaux led Cardinal Lumber with a 1-for-3 performance with an RBI, while Joel Singleton was 1-for-4 with two RBIs.
“Offensively, we did nothing after the (second) inning and gave them everything,” Jensen said. “It was an extremely disappointing loss. We are too old for things like this.”
