Crimson Eagles Beat Cardinals Despite Just Two Hits in FCIAC Baseball Game on This Date in 1977

Warde made the most out of just two hits and capitalized on four Greenwich errors to defeat the Cardinals, 4-3, in an FCIAC road victory on Tuesday, May 10, 1977.

The Crimson Eagles got both of their hits in the fifth inning off reliever Paul Perry. Winning pitcher Kurt Brown led off with a single. A fielders' choice, two errors, and a run-scoring single by David Keith resulted in three runs for the winners.

Brown scattered eight hits and struck out three to pick up the win, Warde's fourth in nine league outings and fifth in 11 games overall. Greenwich slipped to 6-3 in league play and 8-3 overall.

Bob Pendergast had a double, triple, and two RBI for the hosts, while Rick Stewart added two hits.
