Capahas baseball team blanks Printers

The Burger King Capahas made quick work of the St. Louis Printers on Tuesday in Perryville, getting a strong outing on the mound from a trio of pitchers to pick up a 4-0 victory.

Calvin Lovig got the win on the mound for the Capahas (14-2), going five innings and giving up just one hit while striking out four and walking none. Josh Haggerty and Alex Huering each contributed two innings on the hill, with each giving up a single base hit.

Haggerty was 2-for-3 in the batter's box, including a double, the game's lone extra-base hit.

The Capahas struck for two runs in the first inning thanks to a two-RBI single from Kyle James.

They tacked on another in the sixth after Adam Conner followed Haggerty's double with a two-out base hit, and finalized the score by plating a runner in the seventh on a Haggerty sacrifice fly.

The Capahas are back on the field Friday night hosting Waterloo (Ill.).
