Camden, NJ (March 24, 2007) – The DeSales University baseball team was finally able to get a game in on the east coast, traveling to Rutgers-Camden for a non-league game at Campbell’s Field in which fielding miscues late in the game led to a 10-4 loss to the Scarlet Knights.

 

        A tie game at one thru the first four and a half innings was broken open in the bottom of the fifth as Rutgers-Camden (9-7 overall) scored four times (two unearned runs) and followed with five more unearned runs in the bottom of the sixth to build a 10-1 lead.  The Bulldogs (5-4 overall) scored once in the eighth and twice in the ninth to provide the final margin.

 

        Sophomore James Niesuchouski (Chester, VT/St. Dominic) pitched well in the loss, allowing just six hits and two earned runs over five innings.  Sophomore Mike Pennington (Dresher, PA/LaSalle) had two doubles and two RBI’s as DSU totaled seven hits and stole three bases in the loss.
