Carreno helps D-days end skid

AUBURN - It was a familiar setting at Falcon Park on Tuesday night. A fantastic pitching performance, an under-performing offense, and a shutout baseball game - it all read the same as Monday night's contest, but with a happier ending for the Auburn Doubledays.

The Doubledays managed just five hits, but behind the arm of Joel Carreno and a couple outstanding defensive plays, they blanked Tri-City, 2-0. After dropping two to Pinckney division rival Batavia, it was a much-needed win.

“The pitching they had in Batavia last night, we had on our side tonight,” Doubledays manager Dennis Holmberg said. “You can't say enough about Joel. We've just been having a tough time finding ways to score runs.”
