Crum's Solid Relief Not Enough in Loss to Presbyterian
03.28.2025 | Baseball
ASHEVILLE, N.C. - A solid relief outing from freshman Garrett Crum was not enough for UNC Asheville Baseball in an 8-3 loss to Presbyterian at Greenwood Field on Friday (Mar. 28) in Big South Conference action.
Â
Presbyterian built a 4-0 lead through the first two innings before Crum took the mound in the third and held them scoreless for the next five innings. Asheville got one run in the fifth on a Jake Minarik groundout with the bases loaded, before they would add one in the sixth when Jake Pereira scored on a sacrifice fly by Logan Lowe. Presbyterian would add four runs to its lead in the ninth, before Asheville would bring the game to its final score when Patrick Gillen scored on a Blaize Johnson double to right field.
Â
Gillen and Johnson paced the offense with two hits apiece, while Corbin Lanowitz and Rylen Stockton each had one hit in the game. Gillen scored two runs in the game, while Pereira also scored once. Lowe and Johnson each drove in one run in the game. Nick Bruno (0-1) took the loss on the mound, allowing four runs on four hits in two innings with two walks and three strikeouts. Crum's outing spanned a career-high six innings, as he allowed two runs scattering three hits to go along with two walks and one punchout. Nic Melton and Ryland Howell combined to finish off the defensive outs for Asheville.
Â
The Bulldogs return to Greenwood Field tomorrow (Saturday, Mar. 29) to finish up the series with a doubleheader. First pitch is set for 12:00 p.m., with video and live stats available for both games at www.uncabulldogs.com.
