Jordan Bishop jumped on a first pitch fastball and doubled to left center with one out and 6-3, 280 pound first baseman Joe Drpich took Kowar deep to left field to give the Saints a 2-0 win. Kowar struggled to get out of the inning, needing 23 pitches to get out of the initial frame.
“People know we’re going to throw strikes and be around the plate,” Kevin O’Sullivan said.
