UMBC Ninth Inning Rally Leads to 7-6 Extra Inning Win over Delaware

Date: May 3, 2005

BALTIMORE, MD -- UMBC came back from a 6-2 deficit with four runs in the bottom of the ninth to force extra innings and moved on to a 7-6 win over the University of Delaware Tuesday night in non-league baseball action at the Baseball Factory Field.

With two outs and none on in the bottom of the 10th, Brian Moran sent a solo home run over the wall in left-center to win the game. Ian Carman keyed the Retreiver ninth-inning comeback with a two-run single.

Dan Richardson (Bear, DE/Caravel-at right) led off the Delaware 10th with a single but the Retriever's retired the rest of the side with a strike out, a foul out, and a fly out.

The Blue Hens dip to 21-22 while UMBC improves to 11-27

Ryan Graham (Danville, IL/Triton) scattered three hits, a double, and an RBI alongside Richardson who also pounded out three hits, a double, and added a run scored. Kelly Buber (Yuba City, Yuba Community) belted a double on a pair of hits, while Bryan Hagerich (Somerset, PA/Somerset) also contributed two hits two the Delaware total 13 hits.

Billy Harris (Bear, DE/Salesianum) suffered the loss and drops to 2-1 after pitching in 2.2 innings and allowing five runs, two earned, on six hits. Matt Heppner (Riverhead, NY/Riverhead) started the game and allowed two unearned runs on three hits in three innings on the mound.

UMBC had multiple hit performances by Carman, Moran, and Steve Russo. The trio totaled six of the Retriever's nine hits and accounted for four RBI and four runs scored.

Dan Blewett captured the victory and improves to 1-1 after pitching in two innings and allowing only two hits. Steve Evans started the game and went seven innings, allowing five runs, four earned, on 10 hits.

UMBC took the early lead with two runs in the bottom of the second but the Blue Hens evened the score in the top of the third with two runs of their own as Todd Davison (Somers Point, NJ/St. Augustine) singled and scored on Buber's double and Buber scored when Brian Valichka (Frederick, MD/Urbana) grounded out to third.

Delaware tapped in with three more runs in the top of the sixth as Richardson drove home Hagerich, who walked. Richardson scored when Graham singled him home followed by Davison who grounded out to short to score Graham from third. The Hens added one more run in the top of the seventh to increase their lead to 6-2 going into the ninth.

Delaware returns home on Friday to Host Colonial Athletic Association foe George Mason in the opening game of a three-game set at Bob Hannah Stadium. That game is scheduled to begin at 3 p.m.
