Connecticut 6, Delaware
4
Wednesday, March 22, 2000
NEWARK, DE - Behind an unanswered
four-run rally in the top half of the sixth inning, the
University of Connecticut ended Delaware's four-game winning
streak with a 6-4 victory in baseball, Wednesday afternoon
at Delaware Diamond.
Connecticut (8-5) jumped out to a 2-0
lead in the first inning. Centerfielder Michael Scott
reached on a Peter Maestrales (Delray Beach, FL/Pope
John Paul II) error to open the game and he later scored
when starting pitching Rich McGuire (Wantagh,
NY/MacArthur) unleashed his third wild pitch of the season.
Leftfielder Cy Hess scored on a Kevin Wissner sacrifice fly
to make the score 2-0.
Delaware (8-6) got even in the bottom
half of the second inning as Maestrales walked and Bobby Fry
(Anaheim Hills, CA/Canyon) doubled. Kris Dufner
(Philadelphia, PA/Father Judge) drove in Maestrales on a Joe
Kagerer error. Fry scored when Vince Vukovich
(Voorhees, NJ/Eastern) grounded into a double
play.
The Hens took a 3-2 lead in the fourth
when Maestrales, who reached on a Brian Tisbert error,
scored on a Robert Barton wild pitch. They extended the lead
to 4-2 in the same inning when Fry scored on a Vukovich
single.
The Huskies took the lead for the good in
the sixth inning. Catcher Brian Esposito reached on a Dufner
error followed by a Kagerer single. Scott doubled in both
Esposito and Kagerer to tie the score. Hess singled to
bring in Scott for the lead, 5-4. The Huskies added an
insurance run when Hess stole second, advanced to third on a
John Schneider (Lawrenceville, NJ/Lawrence) throwing error
and scored on Clarke Caudill single. All of the Huskies
damage was done with two outs.
Casey Fahy (Clayton, NJ/Gloucester
Catholic) had two hits while Fry had the only extra base hit
for the Hens.
The game was scheduled for only seven
innings due to weather considerations.
Delaware will travel to Temple on
Thursday for a 3:00 p.m. start.
