Baseball splits double header with North Dakota
In game two, North Dakota jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning, but junior Effrey Valdez (Flushing, NY) continued his hot hitting, driving a double down the left field line that scored Gilroy. Magner hit a solo home run in the first and his two-run shot in the second was part of a five-run frame that put UND ahead 7-1.
Baseball splits double header with North Dakota
Grand Forks, N.D. (April 24, 2010) - NYIT Senior Greg Gilroy (Nesconset, NY) homered twice and drove in four runs to lead the Bears to an 11-5 win in game one of the Bears Great West Conference double header with North Dakota State this afternoon. North Dakota junior Jake Magner belted a school-record four home runs in the night cap to lead the Sioux to a 20-19 victory.
Sebastian Grazziani (Whitestone, NY) and Jerry Smith (Nesconset, NY) each had RBI singles in the first inning to give the Bears a 2-0 lead and Gilroy followed with the first of his homeruns, a three run shot to left field that made the score 5-0. North Dakota scored single runs in the first and second innings, but RBI singles from jerry Smith and senior Christian Dienna (Old Bethpage, NY) pushed the Bears lead back up to 7-2 in the top of the fourth. The Bears pushed three more across in the fifth, and Gilroy homered for the second time on the afternoon in the sixth, hitting a solo shot to left field to give the Bears an 11-4 lead.
Left-hander Andrew Guarrasi picked up the win for NYIT, improving to 4-3 as he pitched his second complete game of the season. He allowed five earned runs on 10 hits.
UND would tack on four more runs in the third to grow its lead to 11-1. Junior Josh Ray hit a two-run shot over the scoreboard in left-center.
Magner's first of two three-run homers came in the fourth and put the Sioux comfortably ahead at 14-3. However, the comfort level would quickly change as the Bears struck for seven runs in the fifth to make it a 14-10 score. Freshman Dan Lackner drew a bases loaded walk to score a run, Jerry Smith scored on a wild pitch, sophomore Matt Carr delivered a two RBI double and junior Brian Smith drove in two with a double, advanced to thid on a throw home and scored when the catcher threw the ball away attempting to get Smith out at third base.
After UND was held scoreless for the first time in the game in the fifth inning, Magner broke the school record with his fourth dinger of the game in the sixth when another three-run shot put the Sioux back up by seven.
The home team would need all nine runs produced by Magner because for the second time in three innings New York Tech came roaring back as they tied it up at 17-17. Valdez picked up an RBI on a single, Jerry Smith had a two run double and Carr laced a single into center to a cap the seven-run seventh inning for the visitors.
UND had an answer though as senior Jabby Bakhit broke the tie with a RBI single and Lagein made it a two-run cushion with a sacrifice fly to left.
Nelson's run-scoring double in the eighth proved pivotal as it gave reliever Brandon Baumgartner a three-run cushion to work with in the top of the ninth. After getting the first two outs of the frame, which included a spectacular play by Nelson at shortstop, the Sioux left-hander gave up a double to Christian Dienna.
That brought Lackner to the plate, who hammered a two-run opposite field shot to cut the deficit to one at 20-19. Lackner's blast was the first of game two for the Bears.
Baumgartner got Ryan Campbell to groundout and end a wild, roller-coaster of a game. He picked up his second win in relief in Great West play, while NYIT reliever Jose Checo took the loss after surrendering four earned runs in three innings of relief.
