 Delaware
Falls to Delaware State 4-3 in 10 Innings
on Wild Pitch, Error
Date:
April 12, 2005
DOVER,
DE -- Delaware State's Kevin Hill and
Brandon Gravely both scored on a wild
pitch and an error by the catcher with two
outs in the bottom of the 10th inning as
the University of Delaware let an early
2-0 run lead slip away in a 4-3 non-league
baseball loss Tuesday at Soldier Field.
The
Hens (13-16) , who had a two-game win
streak snapped, took a 2-0 lead in the
first inning but the Hornets (12-19)
rallied back to tie the game and send it
into extra innings.
Delaware
scored in the 10th on a sacrifice fly by
Brian Valichka to go up 3-2, but Delaware
State rallied with two runs in the bottom
of the inning, winning the game when Chad
Kerfoot unleashed a wild pitch and catcher
Brian Valichka's throw back to the plate
was wild.
The
Hens fell to Delaware State for just the
fifth time in 28 all-time meetings.
Ryan
Graham (Danville, IL/Triton) and Adam
Tsakonas (Pottstown, PA/Boyertown Area -
right) led the offense with a pair of hits
while Graham added a double and a run
scored. Bryan Hagerich (Somerset,
PA/Somerset), Brandon Menchaca
(Wilmington, DE/Concord), and Todd Davison
(Somers Point, NJ/St. Augustine) all
chipped in singles to round out Delaware's
eight hits.
Kevin
Brown (Wilmington, DE/McKean) took the
start and in three hitless innings he
struck out three batters while only
walking one. It took the Hornets six
innings before they could record a hit on
the Delaware pitching staff as Chad
Kerfoot (Owings, MD/Northern) suffered the
loss and drops to 1-2.
Dan
Perkins pitched eight innings for Delaware
State and allowed two unearned runs on
seven hits while striking out five but it
was Josh Schmidt (1-2) who picked up the
win by relieving Perkins in the ninth and
allowing one run.
Kevin
Hill led the Hornets with a double on a
pair of hits and added two runs scored.
Brandon Gravely doubled, drove in a run,
and scored a run himself while Curtis
Lovelle and Jared Lineweaver rounded out
Delaware State's five hits with
singles.
Delaware
returns to action on Friday at 7 p.m. when
it travels to UNC Wilmington in a rematch
of last years Colonial Athletic
Association Championship.
