The Austin baseball team had a chance against Rochester Mayo, but it allowed three runs in the top of the seventh inning as it lost 5-3 in Dick Seltz Field Saturday.

Isaac Schumacher had a solid start for the Packers (2-10 overall, 2-10 Big Nine) as he allowed two runs in five innings and he also went 1-for-3.

“We just couldn’t close the door and that’s something we need to do against teams like that,” Austin head coach Chris Gogolewski said.

The Spartans hit three home runs in the game.
