GC wraps up spring break trip with close loss to nationally-ranked UW-Whitewater

PENSACOLA, Fla. - Grinnell College's baseball team pushed nationally-ranked University of Wisconsin-Whitewater to the edge Thursday, but in the end came up on the short end of a 7-4 decision.
 
Grinnell (2-7) trailed 4-0 before its offense kicked into high gear, tallying three runs in the fifth inning when Sean Richardson '24 and Michael Flaherty '25 were each hit by pitches before Luke Porter '24 belted a three-run homer.
 
UW-Whitewater (8-3), ranked 12th in the nation, got a run back in the seventh inning before the Pioneers sliced the gap to 5-4 as Matthew Inaba '22 walked, went to third on Mac McCain's '25 double and scored when Flaherty laid down a perfect sacrifice bunt.
 
The Warhawks scored twice in the bottom of the eighth and hung on from there.
 
Carter Shedd '25, Grinnell's starting pitcher, fanned three batters over four innings while suffering the loss.
 
Grinnell is slated to see its first home action of the season when Beloit College visits Pioneer Park this weekend. There are two games scheduled for Saturday, starting at noon, and one more Sunday with yet another noon start.
