Baseball drops doubleheader at Seton Hill

GREENSBURG, Pa. -  The Clarion University baseball team dropped both games of a Friday double-header against the Seton Hill Griffins, losing game one by a score of 13-11 and game two 5-4.  The losses move the Golden Eagles to 11-28 (4-18 PSAC) on the season.  The Blue and Gold will return to action tomorrow afternoon when they host the Griffins at Memorial Stadium for a Senior Day double-header.  

Game one was a wild, back-and forth affair, with both teams trading off huge offensive innings that constantly kept the momentum in flux.  Seton Hill drew first blood, going off for a four-run first on the backs of three errors from the CU defense.  

However the Golden Eagles answered right back in the top of the second.  Joey Lopez ripped a two-RBI double down the right-field line to cut SHU's lead to 4-2 shortly before Tyler Falk drove Lopez in with a double of his own to cut the gap down to just a run, 4-3. 

Clarion continued to pour it on in the fourth, going off for five more runs.  Dillon Wolbert smoked a triple down the right-field line that scored Lopez and Holmberg to even the game at five-all before a dropped third strike and wild pitch allowed Wolbert to score from third and make it 6-5.  Clarion. would tack on two more runs before the inning was out to lead 8-5.  

However Seton Hill would rally the bats and mount a brilliant comeback, scoring eight runs over the final three innings to go up 13-9.  CU came close to tying things up in the seventh, however fell just short and dropped game one 13-11. 

Seton Hill carried that momentum right over into the start of game two, grabbing an early 1-0 lead courtesy of a solo homerun from right-fielder Mark Colella in the top of the first.  

A fielders choice and sacrifice fly allowed Clarion back in the game in the second by netting them a pair of runs, however Seton Hill managed to answer right back with an offensive outburst of their own justl ike in game one. 

Clarion hurler Kane McCall gave the Golden Eagles six strong innings on the mound, striking out five on the afternoon.  Unfortunately for the Blue and Gold, the solo homer in the first proved to be the difference, as the Eagles fell just short of completing the comeback in the seventh to lose 5-4.
