Box Score MASON, Ohio - Game two of the 2017 NCCAA World Series for the Bluefield Rams proved to be a tough task as the fifth seeded Campbellsville Tigers (23rd in NAIA) defeated BC 12-2, Thursday afternoon at Legacy Field.
Campbellsville, taking on the Rams 20 minutes after completion of their suspended Wednesday night game, wasted little time getting on the board. The Tigers plated three runs in the first against BC starting pitcher Mike Tinucci and never looked back. A five-run fifth inning put the game away and the Tigers ended the game via the 10-run rule in the seventh.
The Rams managed seven hits in the game and committed three errors. Bobby Mena, Erik Williams and Jordan Jackson each had a pair of hits and Williams and Jackson had an RBI each for Bluefield.
Campbellsville hit three home runs in the game as Romello Carbuccia, Brett Hamilton and Hunter Christensen each went yard. Christensen's two-run blast in the seventh ended the game.
Tinucci suffered the loss for Bluefield, who fell to 1-1 in pool play at the World Series. The Rams will face Ecclesia College of Arkansas later today (Thursday) at 6:00.
