The Union City Bears baseball team got on the field for the first time on Monday afternoon as they traveled to Saegertown to take on the Panthers in a region contest.
The game would remain scoreless until the third inning where the Panthers would strike first putting ten runs on the board.
The Bears would put two runs on the board in the fourth as Lucas Doutt would score following a walk, and Luke Wright would double and later score on an RBI single from Aidan Shuman.
The Panthers would score a pair of runs in the fifth and sixth innings to seal the game with a 12-2 victory, as the Bears drop to 0-1 (0-1) on the season.
The Bears will be back on the field on Wednesday afternoon for their home opener as they take on the Cambridge Springs Blue Devils in another region contest.
