Salisbury had a 15-day layoff between games and some of the rust definitely showed.

The Falcons entered the District 11 Class 3A baseball playoffs as the number four seed and hosted fifth seeded Northern Lehigh in the quarterfinal round.

The Bulldogs beat Salisbury 12-0 and ended the Falcons’ season.

Northern Lehigh dominated on the mound, at the plate and on the basepaths. The Bulldogs collected 11 hits, allowed just one hit to the Falcons, and stole 15 bases. In addition to their 11 hits, the Bulldogs showed patience at the plate and drew 12 walks.

Salisbury trailed 3-0 after three innings. In the top of the fourth, Northern Lehigh broke the game open with four runs. While the inning included three walks and a hit batter, plus a pair of two-run singles from Landon Cougle and Chris Vargas.

If the four-run fourth hurt, the five run sixth inning was a killer for Salisbury as they sank to a 12-0 deficit.

Josiah Kuhns started for Salisbury and allowed three runs, only one of which was earned, over 2 1/3 innings of work. Parker Schaffer started and went the distance for the Bulldogs.

Garrett Leiner’s fourth inning single and a pair of walks to Hunter Kotarski and Dominic Gracia were the only offense generated by the Falcons.

Salisbury finished the season with a 10-11 record.
