No. 11 Baseball Splits Doubleheader, Drop Series To Emmanuel

PEMBROKE – The 11th-ranked UNC Pembroke baseball team used six strong innings from starter Jonathon Jacobs to take a 5-2 win in Game 1 of the doubleheader, but couldn't get enough timely hitting to overtake Emmanuel on the way to dropping the nightcap 8-6 on Sunday at Sammy Cox Field.
 
Jacobs allowed just three hits over six innings, allowing only two unearned runs to go along with eight strikeouts in Game 1. In Game 2 action, the Braves found themselves down 5-0 before coming to bat, but would eventually tie the game at 5, before the Lion bullpen quieted the UNCP offense.
 
The doubleheader split moved the Braves (17-5, 5-4 CC) to 5-3 in the all-time series with the Lions (13-11, 3-6 CC). UNCP fell to 13-2 this season when playing at Sammy Cox Field.

The Black & Gold will be back in action Tuesday, March 12, as they host region rival Wingate for Hero Night. First pitch is set for 6 p.m.
