Baseball Falls In Series Opener at Delaware

NEWARK, Del. – The Stony Brook baseball team (19-24, 10-12 CAA) had their four game conference winning-streak come to a close tonight in Delaware after falling to the Blue Hens (22-24, 11-11 CAA), 12-11.

The Seawolves erupted for 14 hits this evening as the squad had five different student-athletes record multi-hit performances. 

After graduate right-hander Ben Fero allowed a run in the first inning, the Seawolves answered with two runs of their own in the following frame. Senior Derek Yalon knocked in junior Matt Brown-Eiring on a double to left field and fellow junior Ryan Micheli followed with his first of three hits in the game by knocking in junior Matt Miceli to give Stony Brook the 2-1 lead.

The Blue Hens wouldn't go away and responded with a run of their own to tie the game at 2-2 in the second. But, the Seawolves again bounced right back to take the lead. This time, Brown-Eiring did the damage by launching his eighth home run of the season to allow Stony Brook to take a 3-2 advantage in the fourth. 
 

The bats for Stony Brook shined the brightest in the Delaware night during the sixth inning. The Seawolves exploded for seven runs in the in frame to take a 10-4 lead. Igniting the rally was three straight RBI hits by senior Brett Paulsen, Miceli, and Micheli. 
 

Following the consecutive hits, graduate Evan Giordano launched a grand slam over the left field fence for his 10th home run of the year to give Stony Brook the 10-5 advantage. 



But, Delaware responded with six runs of their own in the sixth inning and another run in the seventh to go up 12-10.

Junior Evan Fox led the ninth inning off with a double and scored on a wild-pitch to cut the deficit to one. The Seawolves got the winning run to the plate, but the Blue Hens ultimately held on to the 12-11 victory.
