Sports Video Hightlight Reel: T-Bolts Unable to Strike

Andrew was unable to mount any offense in a 5-0 baseball setback to Willowbrook.

Andrew couldn't get anything going against Willowbrook right-hander Zac Venchus as the Thunderbolts were blanked 5-0 in a recent non-conference baseball game.

After throwing a scoreless first inning, Andrew starting pitcher Pat McKeown gave up three runs in the second before he was relieved by Karl Ehlers in the third. Ehlers worked through the fifth, giving up two more runs (one earned). Marcus Radz and Dan Truesdale came in to pitch the sixth and seventh innings.

The Thunderbolts were held to just three hits on the day while drawing three walks and only getting two runners into scoring position.
