Baseball lose in late innings to drop 2013 opener

Sophomore Aaron Gile gave Barton the early lead blasting a solo leadoff homerun to center field. The Cougars increased the lead to four on sophomore Dylan Turpin's two-out three RBI double to left field.

Getting four innings of shutout pitching from starter Brett Tunnell and an inning from Devin Welch, the Cougar bullpen failed to hold the lead in the last two innings. Giving up two in the bottom of the sixth, the Wranglers scored three in the home half of the seventh to steal the 5-4 victory.
