LIU Brooklyn baseball starts off homestand with 6-3 loss to St. John’s
The LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds on Tuesday kicked off a stretch of games — during which they will play 10 of their next 11 at home in Brooklyn — with a 6-3 loss to St. John’s. It was a close game; they led 3-1 early, but slowly gave up the lead to the Queens powerhouse.
“It was a quality game all around,” said first baseman Mark Hernandez. “A couple of big hits here and there could have put us over the top. St. John’s is a quality opponent. We just have to find a way to win games late.”
