FANSHAWE 12, DURHAM 5

LONDON, Ont. - Although the first three games of the Durham College baseball team's opening weekend did not go as planned, the Lords finished on a high note with a 6-1 victory over the Fanshawe Falcons.

The Lords will enter home play with a 1-3 conference record after opening up the season with back-to-back losses to the defending OCAA champion St. Clair Saints, followed up with a 12-5 loss to Fanshawe. Durham's opener is scheduled for Wednesday night when they host the Humber Hawks, who were rained out against George Brown on Saturday.

GAME THREE - Fanshawe defeated Durham 12-5

After the top of the first inning against the first year Fanshawe Falcons, it looked as if Durham was going to cruise to their first victory of the season. However, the team from London had different thoughts and they fought back with 10 runs over the next two innings and went on to win by a final score of 12-5.

Ryan Norris (Oshawa, Ont.) got the start for Durham and pitched a complete game despite allowing 12 runs, 11 of which were earned on 11 Fanshawe hits.

Thomas Fearon (Ajax, Ont.) got the Lords off to the great start with a home run, but the team was only able to post five hits in the loss.
