Date:
April 26, 2005
NEWARK,
DE -- Senior Ryan Graham (Danville,
IL/Triton-at right) drove in five runs on
two round-trippers including a grand slam
for the University of Delaware baseball
team who defeated Wilmington College, 16-4
on Tuesday at Bob Hannah
Stadium.
The
Blue Hens, who have not reached .500 since
a win over UMBC on March 16, even their
record to 19-19 with the victory while the
Wildcats drop to 18-22-1.
Chad
Kerfoot (Owings, MD/Northern) evened his
record to 2-2 with the victory by allowing
one run on three hits while striking out
six in seven innings pitched. Bob Kunz
(0-2) suffered the defeat for Wilmington
by allowing seven earned runs on five hits
in three innings pitched.
Six
Delaware batters laid out two hits apiece
in the victory including Brian Valichka
(Frederick, MD/Urbana) who doubled twice,
Bryan Hagerich (Somerset, PA/Somerset) who
added a double and a triple, Dan
Richardson (Bear, DE/Caravel) who homered
and doubled, and Brandon Menchaca
(Wilmington, DE/Concord) who also went
deep and added a single.
Derek
Pugh led Wilmington with a two-run homer
while Brian Fitzgerald added a solo blast.
Rich Ware, Pete Henyan, Steve Spiese, and
Chris Brooks each singled to round out the
Wildcats six hits.
Delaware
used the long ball in the bottom of the
second to take an early 6-0 lead over
Wilmington. Hagerich shot a run scoring
triple over the head of Wildcat
centerfielder Pugh and was brought in by
Menchaca who sent a two run bast to left
center. Graham followed with a solo shot
to left while Valichka pushed home Kelly
Buber (Yuba City, Yuba Community) and
Davison, who reached on free bases, with a
double to left field.
Richardson
dished out a solo home run in the bottom
of the third before the Hens opened up in
the bottom of the fifth with five runs
highlighted by Graham's grand slam, his
second home run of the afternoon. Hagerich
drove in a run with a sacrifice fly as
Delaware increased it's lead to
9-0.
Kerfoot
held the Wildcats hitless for the first
five innings until Wilmington tallied one
run on three hits in the top of the sixth.
Brooks broke the perfect game with a
single to left field followed by Ware who
singled and was driven in by
Henyan.
The
Hens returned the favor with a single run
in the bottom of the inning before Buber
unleashed a two-run homer on the Wildcats
in the bottom of the seventh to make the
score 16-1.
Fitzgerald
smashed a solo home run over the left
field fence on Matt Heppner (Riverhead,
NY/Riverhead) to lead off a three run
Wilmington ninth inning but the rally was
not enough as Brooks flied out to center
to end the game.
The
Hens travel to George Washington
University on Thursday, April 28 for a
single game slated for 3 p.m.
