Baseball Falls To Diplomats, Draws Even In Game Two

SWARTHMORE, Pa.–Saturday's season-ending doubleheader between the Swarthmore College baseball team and the Franklin & Marshall College Diplomats featured 22 innings as the Garnet were edged 5-4 in game one and tied F&M, 3-3, in the nightcap after 13 innings and sunset rapidly approaching.

The games were also the last for the team's three seniors, Nate Booth, Roy Walker and David Wolfson.

In the first contest, the Diplomats held a 4-0 lead heading into the bottom of the seventh frame before Swarthmore mounted a comeback. Freshman Conor Elliott reached on an error and classmate Charles Levitt followed up with a bunt single that brought Elliott to third. With two outs, pinch hitter Joseph Jackson singled to drive in both runners and Walker made it a 4-3 with an RBI-double to left field.

F&M scored again in the eighth, but the Garnet answered with another run in the bottom half of the inning. Ryan Burnett led off with a walk and reached third after Nico Aldaco's single and a sac bunt. A wild pitch plated Burnett and trimmed Swarthmore's deficit to a single run. Unfortunately, the Garnet were unable to find the tying score and fell to 6-11 in conference with the defeat.

Booth was charged with the loss after allowing five runs, two earned, in eight innings. He finishes the campaign with an impressive 2.06 ERA, the fourth-lowest single-season total in program history and the best mark since 1978.

Levitt, Aldaco, and Jaron Shrock all finished with two hits in the nightcap as Burnett scored twice, including the final run of the evening. F&M held a 2-1 lead, but surrendered the game-tying run in the sixth as Aldaco singled to center field and scored Levitt from second. In the top of the eighth, the Diplomats threatened with one out and the bases loaded before starting pitcher Noah Linhart escaped the jam on a 1-2-3 double play.

A play at the plate in the 12th inning snuffed out the Garnet's chance to walk off as Shrock was tagged out after Walker's 15th double of the season, a new single-season program record.

F&M plated a run in the 13th, but Swarthmore had an answer in the bottom of the inning. Burnett led off with a walk and sprinted all the way to third on Jackson Roberts' sac bunt. A wild pitch brought him home and provided the final 3-3 margin.

Sophomore pitcher Griffin Kammerer allowed three hits and one earned run in the final five innings on the mound.

The Garnet are slated to return 23 letterwinners for the 2017 season.
