HIGH POINT – The continued reduction in consistent hitting production since losing three big bats in the past two weeks bit the Rockers again on Sunday. High Point managed just one run out of scoring opportunities in each of the last three innings as it couldn’t overcome a two-run deficit and fell 4-3 against Southern Maryland at Truist Point. kAm%96 =@DD H2D E96 D64@?5 DEC2:89E 282:?DE E96 q=F6 rC23D 7@C E96 #@4<6CD[ H9@ H6?E `\a :?
