700!!! Vikings win by a score of 11-2 for Coach Beasley’s 700th win! Charles Stephenson picks up his first win of the season as the Vikes improve to 7-3!
Want to thank all our parents for their support this season. Thanks for loving our guys, feeding us between DH’s and even being there when you weren’t allowed to...like tonight to welcome us home from Jackson, MS. This program would not be what it is without all of you!
Take care of your facilities and they’ll take care of you! Fresh paint, a fresh cut, and striped lines means it’s time for fall practice to kick off! Excited for this team to take the field together!
Berry Baseball would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas & our gift to you is 26 opportunities to see the Vikings play at home in 2019!!

So sorry & sad to have to say goodbye to this man today. He was such a huge part of our program and Berry athletics for many years & we all will miss him dearly. RIP Lowell Mathis.
Won’t find a better or harder working assistant coach east of the Golden Gate Bridge than @kmgreer7. Happy birthday Kellen....hope you have a great day!!!
ALT The Atlanta Braves today signed RHP Collin McHugh to a two-year contract worth $10 million guaranteed, with a $6 million club option for 2024 that includes a $1 million buyout. He is set to make $4 million this season and $5 million in 2023. McHugh has agreed to donate 1% of his salary to the Atlanta Braves Foundation.
McHugh, 34, pitched in 37 games and made seven starts for the Tampa Bay Rays last season, compiling a 6-1 record and a 1.55 ERA (11 ER/64.0 IP) with 74 strikeouts and one save. His 1.55 ERA was fourth lowest in the majors among pitchers with as many innings last season, and his 2.11 ERA as a reliever since 2018 is second lowest in the majors (min. 100.0 IP), trailing just teammate Kirby Yates. McHugh fashioned a 23-inning scoreless streak for Tampa Bay last season, tied for the fourth-longest such streak in franchise history. An Atlanta resident, McHugh attended Providence Christian Academy in Lilburn, Ga., before attending Berry College.
Want to thank everyone who came out to support us this weekend. Guys battled the whole series & have built a solid resume for an at large bid into the NCAA tournament. Hope the selection committee sees it that way too.
