William & Mary 4, Delaware 3 May 9, 2003 Tribe Scores Three in Seventh to Take CAA Contest  WILLIAMSBURG, VA -- Delaware committed two seventh inning errors which led to three William & Mary runs which erased a 3-1 Blue Hens lead, and reliever Bill Bray retired all six batters he faced over the final two innings-five by strikeout-as the Tribe claimed its ninth straight CAA win with a 4-3 triumph over Delaware Friday night at Plumeri Park. William & Mary, winners of 9 of its last 10 games, improves to 29-16, 12-3 in the CAA, while the Blue Hens fall to 18-32, 6-13 in the CAA. William and Mary starter Chris Ray improved to 6-5 on the year after allowing three runs on four hits while striking out six in seven innings of work, while Blue Hens starter Jason Rogers dropped to 2-8 after giving up all four Tribe runs on six hits in six innings of work. Bray earned his third save after retiring all six batters he faced. He struck out five and the other out came courtesy of a groundout to first. Delaware opened the scoring in the third. Dave Harden drew a one-out walk, moved to second on a groundout, and came around to score on Todd Davison’s single back through the middle, as he barely beat the throw home from centerfielder Terry Revere to give UD a 1-0 lead. The Hens added to their lead in the fourth when Kris Dufner blasted his eighth homer of the year to right, a solo shot, to widen the lead to 2-0. W&M cut that lead in half in the fourth, as Tim Jones led off the frame with an opposite field double down the left field line, and after a walk to Trey Wakefield and a flyout by Kyle Padgett, Rogers walked C.J. Stimson to load the bases for Mike DeCarlo, who lifted a deep fly ball to right to score Jones from third to trim the margin to 2-1. Delaware extended its lead back to two runs in the sixth, as Dufner led off with a double to the gap in right center, moved to third on flyout to center, and scored on Steve Van Note’s sacrifice fly to right to widen the lead to 3-1. But that lead did not last long, as the Tribe took the lead for good in the seventh. Lentz and Michael Brown blasted back-to-back doubles to leadoff the inning, with Brown’s two-bagger bringing in Lentz to cut the lead to one at 3-2, and then Jones came to the plate and squibbed a comebacker to Rogers, who turned and fired to third to cut down Brown, but his throw was wild, allowing Brown to score to tie the game as Jones advanced to third on the play. Stimson gave the Tribe its first lead on the next pitch, delivering a sacrifice fly to left to score Jones to give W&M a 4-3 lead. Bray set down the order in the eighth and ninth to preserve the Tribe’s fifth-consecutive CAA series win of the year. Brown and Jones each collected two hits as the Tribe finished the game with eight on the night. Dufner had two of the Hens' four hits and senior first baseman Steve Harden was 1 for 4. Harden tied the Delaware career games played mark of 213 set by Dan Colunio in 1994-97. The third and final game of the series Saturday afternoon at 4:00.
