Shallenberger records remarkable day in road doubleheader

NORMAL, Ill. - Dominating at the plate, Mark Shallenberger led the way for the Aces offense as Evansville fell in a pair of narrow defeats in a doubleheader Saturday at Duffy Bass Field in Normal, Ill.

"Tough day for us, especially after such a well played game last night," said Aces head baseball coach Wes Carroll. "We competed, but couldn't get a win in either game. Big day tomorrow to salvage a split. Going to need some people to step up."

Shallenberger went six-for-eight at the plate, recording 11 total bases and five RBI on the afternoon.
