Barons Fall to Stallions in Series Opener

MOUNT VERNON—The Brewton-Parker Barons faced off against the Stallions of Abraham Baldwin on February 21, 2025, losing to ABAC by 13-5 at their home field. The Barons' lineup saw Marquette Gibson leading with two runs. At the same time, Carson Kirby, Jordan Rahn, and Kendell Wade added a run. Rahn went deep, hitting his first home run of the year. Contributions also came from Jeremi Lara, who delivered two RBIs, adding to the team's efforts alongside Gibson, Kirby, and Rahn, who each recorded one RBI. Pitcher Brandon Russell started on the mound for Brewton-Parker. Russell faced challenges against a prepared Stallions squad. Head Coach Aaron Larsen expressed his sentiments about the game: "Obviously not the result we wanted today. Have to give credit to ABAC. They came ready to play and jumped on us early. We need to be better on the bump. We can't always count on scoring a ton of runs each game. We have the chance to bounce back tomorrow, and that's what we're going to focus on." Looking ahead, the Barons have an opportunity for redemption as they face the Stallions again in a doubleheader on February 22, 2025, at home in Mount Vernon. The team, which has a current record of 7-4, is looking to bounce back and sweep the doubleheader to steal the series.
