Cajuns shortstop Brad Antchak making most of everyday duty

LAFAYETTE — Every day Louisiana-Lafayette junior shortstop Brad Antchak comes to the park, he knows he’s going to work like an everyday player.

That in itself has fueled a strong stretch for the junior college transfer, particularly in the field. He battled some inconsistency early this season when he was locked in a time share with freshman shortstop Hunter Kasuls.

But Kasuls broke his hand when he was hit by a pitch in the Cajuns’ series opener against Georgia State, opening the door for Antchak.

“It was an awful thing that happened to Hunter, just a fluke thing and I feel terrible for the guy,” Antchak said.
