Moravian Rallies Late in 9-5 Win

Union, N.J. (3/1/16) – Moravian College used a three run seventh to break a four-all tie on their way to defeating the Kean University baseball team by the final of 9-5 on Tuesday afternoon.

Cameron Leon led the Greyhounds (3-1) with a four-for-four day with two RBI while Mike Roethke drove in three.

Kean chipped away with single runs in the fourth and sixth to tie things up at four-all.  In the fourth Heisch turned a one-out walk into a run by swiping second, taking third on a wild pitch and scoring on a groundout.  In the sixth, graduate student Matt Meleo reached via a miscue and came around to score on a wild pitch.

Charles Savite broke the deadlock in the seventh with a one-out RBI triple in the gap sparking the rally the included four hits.

Anthony Zaloga (1-0) earned the win in relief.  He tossed five innings allowing two runs and four hits.  Austin Arndt (0-1) suffered the loss after throwing four relief innings.

Andrew DiFrancesco, Chris Amato and Matt Krupa all had two hits for the Cougars.  Bull was 3-for-3 while the two through seven batters all had multiple hit days in the win.
