Greenville Lions fall to Mount Pleasant; Lady Lions win 12-2

GREENVILLE — Mount Pleasant 7,

Greenville 0

  Michael Kopech pitched a four-hitter along with 10 strikeouts to lead the Mount Pleasant Tigers to a 7-0 baseball victory over the Greenville Lions at John Mason Field Monday.

  Mount Pleasant is now 8-12 overall and 5-4 in District 13-4A, while Greenville drops to 0-8 in 13-4A play.

  “We started out too slow,” said Greenville coach Cody Salyers. “We’ve got to play the game with more intensity and cut down on our errors. Playing catchup is hard on anybody.”

  Hayden Stuart went 2-for-3 for the Lions, while Luke Dyer and Travis Koger went 1-for-3.

  The Lions made five errors and could never mount any kind of rally against the Tigers’ right-hander Kopech.
