GAME TWO OVERVIEW
The Greyhounds jumped on the board first, taking a 4-0 lead after two innings.  All four runs surrendered were unearned, and the Lindenwood pitching staff pitched near-perfect for the remainder of the game.  Krebs cut the deficit to 4-1 after an RBI single to bring in Jack Lochner.  Lindenwood continued to chip away as a double to left center by Canty made it a 4-2 lead for the Greyhounds.  The Lions took the lead in the bottom of the fifth due in large part to patience at the plate.  Calvin Nowak drew a bases-loaded walk to bring the Lions within one run, and Lindenwood took the lead on another fielding error by UIndy.
