BOX SCORE

Center Valley, PA (April 12, 2010) – The DeSales University baseball team led 4-2 thru six innings but one run in the seventh and three more in the eighth propelled visiting Rutgers-Camden to a 6-5 come-from-behind win in a non-conference game on Monday afternoon at Butz Field.

The Bulldogs (15-11 overall) left 10 men on-base, including eight over the first five innings and that came back to haunt them as the Scarlet Raptors (11-11) took advantage with four runs over the final three innings to earn the road win.

Senior Joe Walsh (Green Brook, NJ/Watchung Hills) took the loss allowing two runs over 1.2 innings of relief. Junior Jeffrey Pinto (Coopersburg, PA/Southern Lehigh) was a bright spot out of the bullpen tossing 3.2 innings allowing just one hit and one run and striking out one.

Junior Andrew Feher (Riegelsville, PA/Palisades) had an RBI double plating one run in the second inning, had an RBI ground out plating sophomore Jack Kavetski (Plymouth Meeting, PA/Plymouth Whitemarsh) in the fourth inning, and junior Mike Newland (Frenchtown, NJ/Delaware Valley) and junior Carson Slonaker (East Greenville, PA/The Perkiomen School) had RBIs in the two-run fifth inning.

Slonaker also doubled and scored in the eighth cutting the lead to one run as the Bulldogs left two men on-base in the eighth. Kavestki had two hits and two runs scored as the only player with multiple hits for DeSales. Feher had three RBIs.
