The men's baseball team bounced back after a tough game one loss to secure a much-needed win, splitting the doubleheader against the Sheridan Bruins on Sunday (Sept. 29) at home.

Game 1: George Brown 6, Sheridan 7

Trailing 3-1 in the bottom of the fifth inning, the Huskies offence sparked to life. Marcus Herback tied the game with a two-run RBI single, followed by RBIs from Chad Samaroo and Peteco Marshall, giving George Brown a 5-3 lead. Sheridan narrowed the gap to 5-4 heading into the seventh inning, then took the lead with a three-run home run, making it 7-5.

In the bottom of the seventh, Lucas Sears doubled and stole third, allowing Samaroo to drive him in, cutting the deficit to 7-6. However, with runners on second and third and two outs, Patrick Jannetta grounded out, ending the game.

 Connor Gentes pitched 6.1 innings, allowing six runs on nine hits while striking out seven.

Game 2: George Brown 9, Sheridan 1

The Huskies didn't let the earlier loss affect them. Tied at 1-1 in the bottom of the third, Samaroo, Herback, and Gentes each drove in runs to make it 4-1. George Brown added five more runs, sealing the win.

Finlay Butler was dominant on the mound, throwing a complete game, allowing just one run on two hits and three walks while striking out five. His season record now stands at 2-1.
