Trinity knocked out of D-III championship tournament with second blowout loss to LaGrange
Trinity Tigers baseball players listen to instructions from head coach Tim Scannell during practice Tuesday, May 31, 2022. The Tigers will be traveling to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to play in the Division III College World Series on Friday.After Trinity held off elimination Saturday night, coach Tim Scannell felt the club was heading into Sunday with some momentum, ready to extend its stay at the Division III championship tournament.
“I don’t think we performed well at all, and we don’t really have an answer why,” Scannell said. “We never played great baseball. … We never got off the ground, and I’m not sure why.” On offense, Scannell said Trinity is “just not a great ball club” on a field with the larger dimensions of Veterans Memorial Park. Through the year, Trinity relied on power rather than foot speed and manufacturing runs, but the Tigers mustered just one home run in three games this weekend.
“We can definitely build on this season,” center fielder Ezra Gore said. “Moving forward, we have to continue that standard, that wave.” Aldridge drove a solo homer over the left-field wall to lead off the sixth, and Gabriel Pallo followed with an RBI triple two batters later. An RBI groundout by Erves made the score 11-1.
The Tigers put two runners on to lead off the fourth but were unable to score. Outside of that opportunity and the first-inning run, Trinity failed to advance a runner into scoring position until the seventh inning, when the Tigers threatened a rally.
