Delaware 10, William &
Mary 2
May 10, 2003
Dave Harden Hit Two
Homers and Knocks in Five Runs to Lead the
Way
WILLIAMSBURG, VA -- Sophomore
rightfielder Dave Harden smacked the first two home
runs of his career, collected three hits, and knocked in
career-high five runs as the University of Delaware scored
nine runs in the final four innings on the way to a 10-2
Colonial Athletic Association baseball victory over host
William & Mary Saturday afternoon at Plumeri
Park.
The Blue Hens, who lost the first two
games of the three-game weekend CAA set to the Tribe,
salvaged a win and improved to 19-32 (7-13 CAA) while
snapping William & Mary's nine-game conference winning
streak which dated back to April 12. The Tribe, which has
already qualified for the CAA Tournament May 20-24 in
Manteo, NC, fell to 29-17, 12-4.
Delaware banged out 11 hits, reaching
doubles figures in that category for the fourth time in the
last nine games. The eight-run winning margin was the
highest for the Hens since a 15-1 win over UMBC back on
March 25.
Blue Hen starter Mike Mihalik put
in an outstanding effort on the mound, allowing just six
hits and one run while striking out eight without a walk in
seven innings of action to improve to 4-3. Scott
Rambo pitched the final two innings to keep the Hens in
front. The Hens handed William & Mary starter Chris
Shaver his first loss of the season. Shaver left the game
after five innings trailing 1-0 and suffered the loss,
falling to 4-1.
The game was a pitching duel between
Mihalik and Shaver after five innings as the Hens scored the
first run of the game in the fourth when Harden hit his
first homer of the game to left field.
Delaware upped the lead to 4-0 with three
runs in the sixth as Harden delivered a three-run home run
off Tribe reliever Hunter Barden with no outs. The Tribe
added a single run in the bottom half of the inning, but the
Hens struck for four more in the seventh as Brock
Donovan scored on a wild pitch, Nick DeCarlo hit
a run-scoring double, Doug Eitelman knocked in a run
on a fielder's choice, and DeCarlo scored on a throwing
error.
The Hens tacked on two more in the eighth
to put the game away as DeCarlo hit an RBI single and Harden
closed the scoring with another run-scoring single for the
10-1 lead.
Harden and Donovan each collected three
hits on the afternoon while DeCarlo was 2 for 5 with two
RBI. Harden's older brother, first baseman Steve
Harden, scored three runs on the day and set a new UD
record for career games played with 214. Tim Jones knocked
in both William & Mary runs to lead the
Tribe.
Delaware will continue action Tuesday as
the Hens travel to the University of Maryland for a 5 p.m.
doubleheader with the Terrapins. Blue Hen third-year head
coach Jim Sherman needs just one to reach 100 for his
career at Delaware.
