Grinnell baseball team loses Florida opener to nation's No. 3 squad

PENSACOLA, Fla. - Grinnell College faced a tough task in its opening spring break game Saturday, squaring off against the nation's third-ranked team in the form of Birmingham Southern College.
 
The Panthers showed they were all of that ranking, erupting for five runs in the opening inning on their way to a 13-0, seven-inning win at Admiral Fetterman Field.
 
Grinnell, 2-2 on the season, was limited to two hits in the game. Michael Flaherty '25 had a two-out infield single in the first inning and Luke Porter '23 belted a one-out double to left in the third.
 
Birmingham Southern, which upped its record to 14-4, added a run in the second inning after its big opening frame, then put up five in the fourth and one each in the fifth and sixth.
 
Ryan Jack '22, Grinnell's starting pitcher, worked 3-? innings and fanned two batters. He was tagged with the loss.
 
Grinnell returns to the diamond Sunday to face Rhodes College at 10 a.m.
