Baseball Takes Two to Gordon

WENHAM, Mass.—The Roger Williams Baseball team took two in a doubleheader against Gordon College 5-2 and 8-5 on a Saturday afternoon.

In game one, the Hawks and the Scots each earned one run in the third inning to tie the game 1-1. Justin Stone (Blackstone, Mass.) singled to right center and quickly stole second. Chris Bosco (North Andover, Mass.) was due up next and crushed a double to left center scoring Stone.

In the bottom of the fourth, the Scots John Lagerfeldt (Stratford, Conn.) led off with a double down the right field line. Christian Hodge (Waltham, Mass.) then singled up the middle to score one as Gordon took the lead 2-1.

Danny Roth (West Hartford, Conn.) doubled down the left field line in the top of the sixth when Anthony Dominguez (Chester, N.J.) knocked him in with an RBI single to left field for a tie game 2-2.

In the top of the seventh, Brandon Jenkins (East Bridgewater, Mass.) and Joey Gulino (Meriden, Conn.) hit back to back homeruns scoring three to put the Hawks ahead 5-2.
Connor Hewlette (Deer Park, N.Y.) started off on the mound for RWU earning the win and seven strikeouts. Craig Demers (Acushnet, Mass.) came in for relief and received the save.

In game two, Justin Garcia (Foxborough, Mass.) recorded the win pitching four innings only allowing one hit, three walks, and earning nine strikeouts.

The Scots came out strong offensively earning two runs in the bottom of the first to give them a 2-0 lead.

Gordon tacked on two more in the bottom of the third from Joseph Mack (East Longmeadow, Mass.) and Mike Oley's (Barkhamsted, Conn.) RBI singles to put them up 4-0.

However, the Hawks answered in the fourth when Bosco reached first on an error by the shortstop and Roth singled advancing him to second. After Bosco stole third,

Dominguez roped one up the middle plating one. Roth later scored on a wild pitch from Scot's pitcher Derek Hudson (Hudson, N.H.) to make things interesting at 4-2.

During the fifth, both teams added a run to the scoreboard from Gulino's triple and Tommy Hobin's (Madison, Conn.) single to put the score at 5-3.

However, the Hawks weren't done fighting and it was noted when Jenkins doubled scoring two to tie the game at 5's going into the seventh inning.

In extra innings, Bosco smashed a three run homer to win the game 8-5 earning their second conference win of the day.

The Hawks (8-12-1) move back to nonconference tomorrow against Rhode Island College (13-7) at 3:30 p.m.
