UMass Dartmouth Drops Two at No. 15 Tufts

The Corsairs were tied late in game one and led early in game two

MEDFORD, Mass. - The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth baseball team was tied late in game one, and led early in game two at No. 15 Tufts, but ended up falling, 5-2 and 11-5, Monday afternoon at Huskins Field.


The Corsairs drop to 11-15, while the Jumbos improve to 19-6.

GAME ONE
The Corsairs took an early 1-0 lead in the first game by manufacturing a run. Freshman Devyn Vezina led off with a walk, took second on a ground out, went to third on a bad pick-off attempt, and scored on a single through the left side by sophomore Jared Neikam. Tufts would answer with two in the second. With one out, a single, a walk, and a hit-batter loaded the bases. The Jumbos then singled home a run and worked a sacrifice fly to go up, 2-1.

UMass Dartmouth evened it up with one in the fifth, sparked by freshman Scott Cromack with one out. He singled through the right side, stole second, and scored on a single by junior DJ Perron. However, right away in the bottom of the fifth, the Jumbos scored three for the 5-2 lead. With the bases loaded again, a single and a double extended the Tufts lead.

Junior Andrew Bryant had a hit and a walk for the Corsairs.

GAME TWO
Both teams scored big in the second inning of game two. For the Corsairs, Neikam's single started a three-run inning. Another single by sophomore Matt Tempone and a hit-batter loaded the bases. Neikam and Tempone would score on a Jumbo error. Cromack then had an RBI single later in the inning. However, Tufts would respond with five runs with a two-run homer, a two-run single, and the fifth run scored on a wild pitch.

An RBI groundout made it a 6-3 Jumbo lead in the fourth. The Corsairs would score twice in the top of the fifth. Cromack and Bryant singled with Cromack scoring on a Jumbo error. Tempone then singled in Bryant.

Tufts would break the game open with five runs on six hits in the bottom of the sixth. A pair of base hits, a run scoring on a double play, and another home run made it an 11-5 game to put it out of reach.

Cromack, Bryant and Tempone all had two hits for the Corsairs.

UMass Dartmouth is on the road for an LEC game at UMass Boston on Tuesday at 7 p.m.
