Chris Galland made his debut for the BC baseball team as a late-game substitution against Santa Clara in the second game of the 2018 season; his rookie campaign. Galland successfully put down a sacrifice-bunt in his first plate appearance and followed with a single through the left side in the ninth.
Galland, out to prove himself at the college level after a successful high school career at Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School and a postgraduate year at Cheshire (Conn.) Academy, cracked the Eagles' lineup in the fifth game of the season. He went 2-for-5 with a double, two runs and two RBI in an 11-6 win over Rutgers and held on to the starting left field job for the remainder of the season.
