The Austin baseball team picked up its second win in a 20-hour stretch when it beat Faribault 10-3 in Seltz Field Saturday.
The Packers (7-6 overall) were coming off a big win over No. 1 Mankato West Friday and they carried that momentum into Saturday’s game.
Dylan Gasner picked up the mound win for Austin and Phillip Zynda had two RBIs.
“It was a good day for the boys to get lots of innings in, see several pitches and have lots of reps in the field,” Austin head coach Chris Gogolewski said. “The boys are feeling good, we now need to take this momentum into next week.”
Austin pitching: Dylan Gasner (W) 5 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 3 K; Evan Horstmann, 2 IP, 1 H, 4 BB, 2 R
