Temple 11, Delaware
4 Owls Strike Early to Down Hens for Coveted LBC Crown
The Owls (9-16-1), who also beat the Blue Hens 8-7 back in March, won their second Liberty Bell Classic title in the tournament's nine-year existence. The Blue Hens (15-10), winners of four LBC titles, were making their eighth tournament final appearance.
Temple banged out 14 hits on the night as catcher Jeff Roma went 3 for 5 and knocked in two runs. Third baseman Bob Sabolchick keyed the five-run second with a two-run single and shortstop Mike Jenkins also knocked in two runs to make a winner of Matt Powell (2-0), who pitched six strong innings, allowing just five Blue Hen hits. Chris Joyce pitched three scoreless innings to earn his first save of the season. Delaware collected eight hits and got a big performance from third baseman Peter Maestrales (Delray Beach, FL/Pope John Paul II). The junior went 2 for 4 and clouted a three-run home run, his ninth of the season, in the sixth inning to pull the Hens to within 7-4. Maestrales also doubled and scored a run in the fifth inning for the Hens. Delaware starter Nick Spiewak (1-2) took the loss for the Hens, allowing five hits and three earned runs in four innings. After Delaware pulled to within 7-4 on Maestrales' sixth inning home run, Temple added some insurance with four runs in the eighth inning to put the game away. Delaware will continue play this weekend when the Hens take on Drexel for four America East games in Philadelphia beginning Saturday.
