Baseball goes three for four

The men’s baseball team won three of their four weekend games in a homestand at Megaffin Park. On Saturday, they beat the St. Clair Saints 4-3 in their opening game and 9-8 in the second match of the double-header. Graham Fulton got three hits in seven at-bats over the two games, while Darcy Masterson went one-for-four with five walks, a double and three runs batted in.

On Sunday, the Gaels clobbered the York Lions 10-0 in their opening game. Stephen McDonald threw six innings of shutout ball, only allowing two hits, while Todd Larson led the team offensively with a home run, two walks, a sacrifice fly and five runs batted in just four plate appearances. The Lions rebounded in the second game, beating Queen’s 8-5 despite a three-for-four performance by Fulton with two home runs and three runs batted in.

This weekend, Queen’s will go on the road to face the Saints in a double-header Saturday and the Lions in two games Sunday.
