Luke Squared Power Braves to 9-5 Win

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX - Bradley's duo of Luke's - freshman SS Luke Shadid and sophomore 1B Luke Mangieri - combined to go 5-for-8 with five runs batted in, leading the Braves (1-1) to a 9-5 win at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi (1-1) Saturday afternoon at Chapman Field.

Each team has used a big inning to propel itself to a win and a series split through the first two games of the weekend series. They will play the rubber game Sunday with a 1 p.m. start at Chapman Field. Senior RHP Eric Scheuermann is expected to get the start on the mound Sunday for the Braves.
