The shorthanded Battalion headed out (waaaaay out) to beautiful Sanscartier Park to square off with the RiverHawks.
Braden McGinnis was making his first start of the year and was solid.
The offense got off to a good start for the Battalion, scoring one in the first, and 3 in the second highlighted by an RBI double by Ryan Dillon, and a 2 RBI single by Sam McIntosh.
The Riverhawks bounced right back, scoring 3 of their own in the bottom of the second after 3 straight walks.
The teams would exchange runs and head into the bottom of the 7th 5-5 where the RiverHawks were able to scratch across a run, winning 6-5
The Battalion face off with the NitaBeer Panthers on Tuesday.
