Life on the road in the Jayhawk can be unkind as the Barton Community College baseball team experienced that Saturday afternoon in El Dorado, KS dropping its' doubleheader to Butler Community College 3-2 and 4-1 from McDonald Stadium.
The Cougar offense was held in check throughout the day manufacturing just three runs over the 16-inning twin bill generating six hits in the opener before being held to just four knocks in the nightcap.
Splitting the four-game weekend set, Barton falls to 8-4 in conference play and drops to 16-9 on the season while the Grizzlies move to 7-5 in conference play and 16-8 overall. Seeing its' six-game winning streak snapped, the Cougars will look to start a new one Monday as they host the development squad of Kansas Wesleyan University in a 3:00 p.m. seven inning doubleheader from Lawson-Biggs Field before hitting the road Thursday to open a four game weekend set against Garden City Community College.
