Delaware 15, UMBC 1
March 25, 2003

Harden brothers combine for seven hits in rout of visiting Retrievers

Dave Harden tied a UD record with three doubles today against UMBC

 

NEWARK, DE -- Senior Steve Harden (Wilmington, DE) went 4-for-5 and younger brother, sophomore Dave Harden (Wilmington, DE) tied a University of Delaware baseball record with three doubles to lead the Blue Hens to a 15-1 rout of visiting Maryland-Baltimore County today at Bob Hannah Stadium. The 15 runs and 17 hits pounded out by the Delaware offense are both season highs for the club.

Freshman Todd Davison (Somers Point, NJ) led off the Blue Hen first with his first collegiate homer to left field. In the second, Dave Harden notched his first double of the game to drive in his brother, Steve while senior Matt Wimer (Quarryville, PA) got his first hit of the season, a single to right that scored two runners and gave Delaware a 4-0 lead.

Steve Harden homered to left in the sixth for his fourth of the season to push the advantage to 6-0. Harden also had two doubles, a single and knocked in four RBI to up his team-leading total to 18.

Wimer added another RBI single in a six-run sixth inning while sophomore Brock Donovan (New Castle, DE), senior Kris Dufner (Philadelphia, PA), Steve Harden and freshman Joe Coudon (Rising Sun, MD) each plated a run in the inning.

Junior Mike Mihalik (Allentown, PA) picked up his second win in as many starts. He scattered seven hits over 7.0 innings while striking out nine batters to improve to 2-1 on the season. Steve Harden also saw his first action on the mound this season, working a scoreless ninth inning while getting the final two batters of the game to strikeout looking.

Dave Harden ripped a two RBI double down the left field line in the eighth, scoring senior Nick DeCarlo (Glen Mills, PA) and, once again, brother Steve with the games final run.

With the offensive outburst, Delaware raised its team batting average for the season from .236 to .248.

The three doubles by Dave Harden is the 10th time a UD player has accomplished that feat, with the last time coming versus Northeastern on April 1, 2001 by infielder Peter Maestrales.

Chris Yetter paced the UMBC (3-11) offense with three hits.

The Blue Hens (7-13) will take on LaSalle in the first-round of the Liberty Bell Classic at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia. First pitch is scheduled for 3 p.m.
