No. 11 Braves Fall 4-1 To Emmanuel In Series Opener

PEMBROKE – The 11th-ranked UNC Pembroke Baseball team struck first on a Spencer Faulkner solo shot, but the Emmanuel bullpen shut down the UNCP bats on their way to taking a series-opening 4-1 win Friday night at Sammy Cox Field.

Chase Jernigan came out of the bullpen and went five scoreless innings to keep the Braves in the game, but Emmanuel would turn four double plays to keep the UNCP offense at bay.

The Braves (16-4, 4-3 CC) fell to 4-2 in the all-time series against the Lions (12-10, 2-5 CC).
 
The two squads will take Saturday off as heavy rain is expected in the area, and conclude the series Sunday with a doubleheader. Game times are TBA.
