South Bend Cubs Split Doubleheader in Cedar Rapids

The South Bend Cubs played one and a half games Friday night, finishing a suspended contest from Thursday and following it with a shortened seven-inning Game 2. It was a night of big swings — both on the scoreboard and at the plate.

⚾ Game 1 – Cubs Let 5–0 Lead Slip Away

South Bend entered the resumed game leading 5–0 in the bottom of the 3rd, but the game unraveled in the 5th.

  • Danny De Andrade hit a grand slam (his 8th HR) off Chase Watkins, tying the game at 5.
  • Watkins gave up 5 runs in the inning, and Luis Rujano allowed the go-ahead run later.
  • Final: Cedar Rapids 6, South Bend 5

💣 Game 2 – Cubs Bash Their Way to Victory (7 innings)

South Bend struck early and often:

  • Cristian Hernandez hit a 2-run homer in the 1st (HR #4).
  • Brian Kalmer followed with a 2-run shot in the 2nd (HR #2).
  • An 8-run 3rd inning blew it open, highlighted by:
    • A Drew Bowser 2-run double
    • A Brian Kalmer 2-run single (aided by an error)
    • A Jefferson Rojas 3-run homer (HR #6) to left-center

🎯 Pitching:

  • Erian Rodriguez earned the win: 5 IP, 3 ER, 8 K
  • Grayson Moore shut it down: 2 IP, 0 R, 3 K

Final: South Bend 12, Cedar Rapids 4
