BOX SCORE
Prairie View A&M dropped its first game of the MLB Urban Invitational 9-2 to Alabama State on Friday night under the lights of Minute Maid Park in Houston. The Panthers had their lowest scoring output of the season and couldn't overcome a four-run fifth inning by ASU en route to their second loss in a row.?
Panthers starter Michael Medina made it through four innings with just moderate damage and a 2-0 deficit to battle back from before Alabama State tacked on three more runs in the top of the fifth to take a 5-0 lead. He was replaced by Chadd Flick out of the bullpen, who threw 3 2/3 innings with four runs (three earned) off of seven hits.
Alabama State held Prairie View A&M scoreless through 8 2/3 innings before an RBI single by junior first baseman Dominiq Harris was able to score sophomore short stop Walter Wells from third base. Designated hitter Greg Salcido reached on a throwing error by Alabama State's third baseman and Harris advanced three bases to score an unearned run. Harris finished 2-for-4 with one run scored and a RBI to lead Prairie View A&M offensively.?
The Panthers will play Texas Southern at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday in Minute Maid Park as they look to bounce back with authority over their in-state rival.?
