Game 2 Box Score & Play-By-Play

QUINCY, Ill. - Kevin Reynolds' 1-out double in the bottom of the ninth inning gave Quincy a 5-4 victory over Lewis and a sweep of Saturday's Great Lakes Valley Conference baseball doubleheader.

In the 7-inning opener, Quincy scored six runs in the second inning and went on to post an 11-3 win.

Adam Mason led off the Quincy ninth with a single. After Kevin Sewell lined out, Andrew O'Donnell pinch ran for Mason and scored the winning run when Reynolds hit the ball into the gap in right center.

Lewis took a 1-0 first-inning lead. Brian Davis led off with a double, moved to third on Brandon Niewinski (Morris, Ill./Morris)'s sacrifice bunt and scored on Andy Sweet (Belvidere, Ill./Belvidere)'s groundout.

The Flyers broke a 1-1 deadlock in the fifth when Sweet was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded to score Mike Loprieno, who started a 2-out rally with a single.

The Hawks claimed a 3-2 lead with two runs in the bottom of the fifth, but Lewis battled back to re-take the lead by scoring twice in the sixth.

Ahren Baranski led off with a single, moved to second on Chris Carbonaro (Chicago, Ill./Loyola Academy)'s sacrifice bunt and scored on Mike Smith (Lemont, Ill./Lemont)'s single. An infield single by Darryl Jenkins put runners at first and second. Jenkins moved to second when Smith was caught stealing at third and scored on Loprieno's 2-out single.

An unearned run in the bottom of the sixth gave Quincy a 4-4 tie and set the stage for the Hawks (30-24, 20-16 GLVC) to win it in the ninth.

Loprieno had three hits and Davis, Baranski and Jenkins had two hits apiece.

Lewis was limited to three singles by a trio of Quincy pitchers in the opener. The Flyers scored a run in the fourth on Baranski's single and added a pair in the seventh on a fielder's choice by Phil Marchinski and a single by Davis.

The Flyers conclude the season Sunday with another twinbill at Quincy. Starting time is noon.
