Bison Notes

Bucknell dropped its seventh consecutive league game in a closely contested game against Navy on Wednesday, 3-1.
The Bison's lone run came on an RBI groundout by Brendan Lowery that scored Dominic Toso.
Bucknell only managed three hits on the day, with Jared Drizin, Tyler Wincig, and Alex Baumann each notching a hit.
The Bison posted strong relief performances against the Mids, with Nate Grisius, Nicholas Sadd, and Hunter Robichaux combining to throw six scoreless innings.
Robichaux was especially impressive, tossing three innings and striking out six while scattering just two hits against Navy's Patriot League-leading offense.
The six strikeouts for Robichaux were tied for a season-high, and he has now struck out at least two batters in nine out of his last 11 appearances.
Baumann notched another double against the Mids on Wednesday, his third double against Navy this season.
In three games against Navy in 2019, Baumann has hit .545 (6-for-11) with four RBIs and one run scored.
Wincig continued his strong conference season, and is now hitting .367 in 11 games with five home runs and 11 RBIs.
Drizin is also hitting above .300 in conference play this season, with 13 hits and five RBIs against Patriot League foes.
Evan Klugerman posted a .364 average against Lehigh last season in the five matchups.
