CONWAY, Ark. – The University of Redlands baseball team (7-7) fell behind 2-0 before taking a 4-3 lead in the seventh, but a four-run bottom half of the inning by Hendrix College proved to be the difference maker as they lost the third of four games, 7-4.

Jesse Bullard got the Bulldogs on the board in the third with a two-run single to left. Sean McCance and Luke Hanson each scored. Bullard then homered to center for a 3-2 lead.

Anthony Thomas reclaimed the lead, 4-3, with a single through the left side as Ian Umscheid trotted home in the seventh.

The Warriors, though, found four runs in the next half inning thanks to a trio of singles as they pushed in front, 7-4.

In the eighth Eddy Stone was at second and McCance at first for Hanson, but he grounded out to shortstop to end the frame. Then in the ninth the Bulldogs went down in order.

Redlands' other D3baseball.com National Team of the Week member, Bullard, had three hits and three RBI. Tanner Gerosa had a pair of hits and both Stone and McCance reached safely twice.
