SU Baseball Drops Three Games in Opening Weekend

Schreiner committed a total of 14 errors in three games which resulted in 12 unearned runs as the Mountaineers lost all three games in their opening weekend of the 2008 season. 

SU dropped its opener, 15-8, against Eastern New Mexico.  Schreiner held an 8-6 lead entering the 8th inning, but gave up 9 unearned runs to allow the comeback.  Sophomore Eric Wehmeyer (0-1) took the loss despite not giving up an earned run in 1-2/3 innings of relief.

In the second game, Schreiner lost a hard-luck pitching duel to fellow-ASC team Howard Payne in a non-league contest, 2-1.  Senior starting pitcher Kevin Jones gave up just one run while scattering six hits over six innings.  Senior Bernard Pena (0-1) pitched two innings of relief, and only gave up two hits, but gave up the decisive run in the bottom of the ninth.  Both games were played in Midland on a neutral site.

In the weekend's finale, Schreiner moved over to Odessa to play at NCAA Division II UT-Permian Basin.  UTPB scored three runs in both the third and fifth innings and then another six in the sixth to blow open the contest.  Junior Chris Armijo (0-1) took the loss, allowing four earned runs in four innings of work. 

Offensively, junior Johnny Huizar had a team high five hits in nine at bats (.555).  Sophomore Eric Crenwelge, junior Ray Martinez and seniors Matt Langston and Richard Sanchez all had three hits during the weekend.  Langston had three of the team's 8 RBI.
