March 12, 2004 Harden's Torrid
Hitting Carries Hens Past Red Hoxes
Senior Steve Van Note added his fourth home run of the season and junior Kelly Buber had two RBI for the Hens, who have now won eight straight overall and nine straight at home, dating back to last season. The last time a Delaware baseball team won eight in a row was back in 2001 when the Blue Hens reeled off 14 straight wins. The Red Foxes (2-8) jumped out to a 2-0 lead a solo home run by Chris Watters in the second and another by Kevin Buck in the top of the fifth. The Hens cut the lead to 2-1 on a sacrifice fly by junior Ryan Graham in the bottom half of the inning and took a 3-2 lead in the bottom of the sixth when Van Note and Harden hit back-to-back home runs. Marist came back to tie the game at 3-3 in the top of the eighth on an RBI groundout by Jimmy Board before Delaware tacked on three runs in the bottom half of the inning to take a 6-3 lead. Harden's second home run of the game and ninth of the season with two outs in the inning gave the Hens a 4-3 lead before Buber's two-run single upped the lead to 6-3. Marist pushed across a run in the top of the ninth off Delaware reliever Joe Coudon before he struck out Eric Johnson looking to pick up his first save of the season. Mihalik earned his first win of the season for the Blue Hens, allowing seven hits and three earned runs in eight innings. Jonathan Smith started for Marist and pitched five innings, allowing six hits and three earned runs while striking out six. Peter Fuller suffered the loss in relief, working 2.2 innings and allowing three earned runs on three hits. The two teams will meet in the second game of this three-game series Saturday afternoon at Bob Hannah Stadium. First pitch is set for 1 p.m.
