Baseball Earns Split in Comeback Win Over Ithaca

LEXINGTON, SC - The Swarthmore College baseball team earned the split against Ithaca College and Case Western Reserve University on Wednesday. The Garnet came back to beat the Bombers, 7-6, but fell to the Spartans, 9-3, in today's nightcap. 

Leor Kedar had a pair of doubles in the team's victory, including a game-tying double in the ninth inning. Aidan Sullivan then followed with a go-ahead single to propel the Garnet to victory in a five-run inning. Gabe Elliott earned the victory with a scoreless eighth inning, while Alexander Rimerman tossed a pair of hitless innings in the sixth and seventh.  

SWARTHMORE 7, ITHACA 6
HOW IT HAPPENED
- Ithaca controlled the game early with four-unanswered runs in the opening five innings. The Bombers scored one run in the first, added another in the third and plated a pair in the fifth.

- Swarthmore's offense was unable to get much going until the sixth inning. Following a one-out Matthew Silvestre walk and a Benjamin Buchman single, Zac Kahn brought home the team's first run with an RBI knock. Buchman later came around to score on a passed ball to shrink the team's deficit to two runs, 4-2. 

- Rimerman stepped up for the Garnet with a 1-2-3 shutdown inning in the sixth. He then stranded a pair of baserunners in the seventh to keep his squad within a couple runs.

- Swarthmore had its first seven runners reach in a five-run ninth inning. The first two batters advanced on a walk and a hit-by-pitch, while Wilson Henze singled to load the bases. Kedar then tied the game with a two-run double to left-center field. Suillivan then followed with a go-ahead single, while the team plated two more with a hit batsmen and a wild pitch, 7-4. 

- The Bombers threatened in the bottom half of the inning with a two-out, two-run home run. However, Zach Potthoff got the following batter to fly out to end the game, 7-6.

HOW IT HAPPENED

- Lewis retired the side in the fifth and tossed a scoreless sixth to keep his team within striking distance. The Garnet offense got back on track in the seventh with one run on three hits. Max Roffwarg reached on an error to open the stanza, while Kittredge followed with a single.
