KANATA, Ont. - 听Designated-hitter Chris Haddad walked and advanced to third base before scoring the winning run on a wild pitch as the visiting McGill Redbirds held on for a 6-5 victory over Carleton in the opening game of a doubleheader in men's university baseball at Kanata Kinsmen Park, Sunday. Then the Redbirds gave up 13 walks and a hit batsmen en route to losing the nightcap 9-3.
