FOG HALTS GAME, LE MOYNE BASEBALL FALLS TO LAMAR 6-1 IN FIVE INNINGS 

BEAUMONT, Texas - Lamar scored three runs in the top of the first and a thick fog halted a Le Moyne rally and the game in the fifth inning as the Cardinals won the series opener 6-1. Junior 3B Stephen Crawford (Webster, N.Y./Eastridge) recorded two hits for Le Moyne (1-3). Game two of the series at Lamar (7-3) has been pushed back to a 5 p.m. start (local time) tomorrow.

After the hosts jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first, the Dolphins put their only run of the game on the board in the top of the fourth inning by stringing together a pair of hits. After a one out single by Phil St. Amant (Brockport, N.Y./Brockport), Robby Perez (Miami, Fla./Belen Jesuit) ripped a two-out double down the right filed line. St. Amant scored from second.

The Cardinals answered with an unearned run in the bottom of the fourth and added to their lead with a pair of runs in the bottom of the fifth inning.

In the top of the sixth inning, Le Moyne plated one run and had the bases loaded with none out when the game was halted due to poor visibility.
