Bulls Drop a Pair to St. Bonaventure

Shivam Bhan

St. Bonaventure got on the board first in game one when a leadoff walk in the second inning to T.J. Pennino resulted in the first run of the contest. The Bonnies added to their lead in the fifth with four runs, the biggest hit coming on a two-run homer to left field by Randy Moley.

Rob Mancini (Windsor, Ontario/St. Thomas) had a pair of hits, including a double, in the first game of the doubleheader for the Bulls.

In the nightcap, Jacob Rosenbeck (Medina, NY/Medina) gave the Bulls a 1-0 lead in the top of the fourth when he singled through the right side, scoring Shivam Bhan (Caledon, Ontario/Mayfield), who singled earlier in the inning. Bhan had a pair of hits in game two for UB.

But St. Bonaventure took the lead in the bottom of the fifth when a walk and a trio of hits led to three runs for the Bonnies.

Jesse Reinstein (Thornhill, Ontario/Westmount Collegiate) started game two for the Bulls and was outstanding in three innings of work, striking out six; he also picked off a pair of St. Bonaventure base runners.

Buffalo will return to the diamond this weekend as the Bulls make their first Mid-American Conference road trip of the season. The Bulls will travel to Muncie, IN to take on Ball State in a three-game set. Friday’s game is scheduled to begin at 3:00 p.m. while first pitch on Saturday and Sunday is set for 1:00 p.m.
