Baseball Splits Series-Opening Twinbill vs Valpo
PEORIA, IL – Senior 3B Brendan Dougherty extended his hit streak to 15 games as Bradley (15-16, 7-6 MVC) split a doubleheader against visiting Valparaiso (12-24, 7-11 MVC) Friday night at Dozer Park. The Braves rolled to a 9-5 win in the opener, but managed just two hits in a 2-1 setback in the 7-inning nightcap.
The teams are scheduled to play single games at 1 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday, but may switch to an 11 a.m. doubleheader Saturday in an effort to beat expected rain across the region as the weekend progresses. As scheduling decisions are made, updates will be posted at BradleyBraves.com and on the Bradley Baseball social media accounts.
