CUBS WIN COME-BACK OPENER, 6-4
The Brenham Cubs scored five runs in their final two at bats, as they came back to defeat Dickinson, 6-4 in the 2020 season opener at Firemen’s Park, Monday night.
The Gators had a 4-1 lead going into the bottom of the fifth inning, when the Cubs began their rally.
A leadoff double by Ethan Jezierski got the rally started. Jezierski scored on a single by Braden McCain. A Dickinson error scored pinch-runner Jackson Mueller to cut the lead to 4-3 after five.
In the sixth the Cubs took advantage of three consecutive Gator errors to plate three runs and take a lead they would not relinquish.
Jackson Corn picked up the win with two innings of scoreless relief as he yielded just one hit, while striking out two batters. Ben Bosse got the start, giving up four runs—three earned—over five inning. Bosse struck out eight and walked three.
