The Bellevue Wolverines proved to be too much for the Liberty baseball team this weekend, beating the Patriots in back-to-back games on Friday and Monday.

On April 3, Bellevue got rolling early, picking up a run in the first and four more in the second for a 5-0 lead. Only one of the runs was earned, however, as an error by Liberty led to the additional runs. Starter M. heath went only two  innings, striking out 3, walking 4 and allowing 2 hits.

The Liberty defense stiffened up after that, however, and reliever B. Munro held the Wolverines to just 3 more hits and zero runs the rest of the game.

Liberty was also able to plate runs in the fourth and fifth innings and then was able to rally for one more run int he seventh before Bellevue shut the door on a 5-3 win.

On Monday, Bellevue was able to hold the Patriots to just 2 hits while scoring 3 runs of their own off 11 hits for a 3-0 win.

Liberty is now 3-7 on the year. They are scheduled to play at Juanita on Wednesday.
