Baseball splits with Gallaudet on the road

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Penn State Berks baseball team split with Gallaudet University in a cold and windy United East doubleheader on Sunday afternoon. Berks held off a late rally for a 3-2 victory in game one. The Nittany Lions authored an impressive comeback effort of their own in game two, but came up on the wrong end of a 15-14 decision.

Berks now sits at 3-7 on the season and are 2-1 in the United East, while the Bison move to 7-14 overall and 1-2 in conference action.

In the opener, Berks took a 1-0 lead in the top of the fourth when Jonathan Myers grounded out to second to score Colin Amerine. They tacked on another run in the top of the fifth when Kolbie Reeser scored from second base on a fly out to center by Chad Evans. Myers added an RBI single in the sixth to score Rayjay Marmolejos, who walked and stole second to lead off the inning.

Berks got two quick outs in the bottom of the seventh, before the Bison got a walk and a single to chase starter Ricky Peters. Gallaudet got an infield single to load the bases and a Berks on the next play allowed two runs to score. Following a hit batter, Gallaudet had bases loaded and trailed by just one run. The next batter sent a grounder toward shortstop, that hit the runner and ended the game.

Peters earned his first collegiate win after allowing four hits and two unearned runs, while striking out five in 6.2 innings of work. Sam Perrone, who finished off the game, picked up his first save of the season and second of his career.

Nick Bergeman finished 3-for-4, while Marmolejos went 2-for-2 with a double a run scored and Myers went 1-for-3 with two RBI. Reeser, Evans, David Rudisill, and Joey McGann all had hits.

In the second game, Rudisill flew out to right field and Colin Templin tug up for a 1-0 lead in the top of the first. The lead was short lived as the Bison scored in bunches over the first three innings to lead 10-1. Berks scored five times in the top of the with, while GU added on in the bottom half to make it 11-6. The Nittany Lions scored six unearned runs to go ahead 12-11 midway through the eighth. GU scored three times in the bottom of that inning to go back up 14-12. With two outs in the top of the ninth, McGann singled to left to score a pair of runs and tie the games once again. After two quick outs in the bottom of the ninth, the Bison got back-to-back walks, followed by a single to left field to bring in the winning run.

Rudisill went 2-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI, and two runs scored. Colin Templin was 1-for-4 with three RBI, while Evans was 1-for-4 with two RBI and three runs scored. Tyler McGarvey and Marmolejos each had a hit and scored twice.
