Baseball Scores Four in Ninth to Sweep Series with Bullets

GETTYSBURG, Pa. - With the game tied at 6-6, the McDaniel College baseball team scored four runs in the top of the ninth to post a 10-6 victory over Gettysburg Sunday at Kirchhoff Field.

The Green Terror (16-11, 7-3 CC) swept the season series with the Bullets and have won three of the last five overall against them.

Gettysburg jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first on a two-run single by Adam Hicks and held its two-run margin until the top of the fourth.

McDaniel got on the board on a sac fly by senior Tyler Yohn that scored freshman Ethan Haddock before sophomore Ben Davis hit his team-leading fourth home run of the season, a two-run shot that put the visitors in front, 3-2.

Jack Pistner followed with a two-run shot of his own in the fifth as the Bullets (13-18, 2-8 CC) retook the lead before a two-run double from freshman Shea McKenna in the sixth put the Green Terror back in front.

McKenna came around to score on a two-out, RBI-single by sophomore Kyle Carl to push the lead to 6-4 before Pistner hit his second two-run homer in the seventh to tie the game for the first time.

After a scoreless eighth, McDaniel plated four runs in the ninth, three of which were unearned. Sophomore Robert Weer led off with a single before Carl reached on a two-base error and junior Shane Daly walked to load the bases. Haddock drove in the game-winning run with a sacrifice fly to score Weer before Carl scored on a failed pick off attempt.

Daly scored on an RBI-ground out by Yohn before graduate student Joey Hubinger capped the scoring on an RBI-single by McKenna.

Junior Conor Henderson slammed the door on the Bullets in the bottom of the ninth to pick up his second win of the season, retiring all three batters he faced to secure third win in the last four for the Green Terror at Kirchhoff Field.

McKenna finished 2-for-5 with three RBIs while Davis was 2-for-3 with a double, home run, two RBIs, two walks and two runs. Yohn also drove in two runs and Weer had two hits and one walk.

The top two teams in the Centennial Conference begin a two-game series on Tuesday as McDaniel hosts No. 13 John Hopkins at Preston Field. First pitch is at 3:30 p.m.
