ATLANTA, Ga. -- The Millsaps College baseball team wrapped up their weekend in Georgia with a Sunday morning contest against Whitworth Unviersity.

The Pirates served as the home team on the scoreboard in a game that was played on the campus of Oglethorpe University. Whitworth jumped out to a big lead early on, and their pitching never let up en route to securing a 10-0 win over the Majors. 

How It Happened
The Pirate offense plated a run in the bottom of the 1st, and then errupted for 6 runs on 6 hits and 2 errors in the 2nd to grab an early 7-0 lead. They added a pair of runs in the 3rd, and rounded out the scoring with 1 run in the 6 to push their lead out to 10-0. 

Their pitching staff used three different players to go the full 9 innings and allow just 1 Millsaps hit, a Chris Hart single in the top of the 1st. 

Key Contributors
While the Millsaps offense struggled all morning long, the bullpen had a strong showing. 

Jimmy Fondren pitched 3 complete innings, allowing just 1 hit and 1 run. He also struck out 3 batters. Taylor Sullivan and Ryan Erwin combined to throw the last 2.1 innings of scoreless baseball on the mound. 

What's Next?
The Majors are back on the road Tuesday afternoon for a midweek game at East Texas Baptist University. First pitch from Marshall, Texas is set for 4:00 pm.
