Baseball splits with Scranton

SCRANTON, Pa. -- After a game one loss, Tyler Dunbar pitched a complete game in game two for the Elizabethtown College baseball team, who went on to win 12-3 to salvage the split on Saturday at Volpe Field. Anthony Knight, Robbie Bertucio, and James Kantner each had multi-RBI efforts for the Blue Jays in game two.

HOW IT HAPPENED
Game 1: Scranton 8, Elizabethtown 2
- Scranton (13-18, 7-8 Landmark) had a 2-0 lead after one inning, and after a four-run third, led 6-0 through three.
- Elizabethtown (12-23, 5-9 Landmark) had runners on base, but grounded into three double plays in the first five innings to halt any type of rally attempts.
- Mike Christy homered to left in the sixth inning with the Blue Jays down 8-0. It was a two-run shot as Derek Manning was on for his junior teammate.
- Nick Bein, Riley McGinley, and Andrew Fisher each had two hits for E-town.

Game 2: Elizabethtown 12, Scranton 3
- Game two was just what Elizabethtown needed out of Dunbar. The Jays did not even need to dip into the bullpen as Dunbar went the distance, allowing three runs (one earned) with six strikeouts.
- Manning and Christy staked E-town to a 2-0 lead in the first with a pair of RBI base hits.
- Knight singled to right to score Fisher and make it 3-0.
- A two-run single for Scranton in the bottom of the third got the hosts back to within a run, but it was all Elizabethtown in the middle innings.
- Bertucio's sacrifice fly in the fourth allowed Manning to score as the lead doubled to 4-2.
- A Royals' error in the sixth allowed McGinley to come across home plate and extend it to 5-2.
- Still in the sixth, McGonigle doubled down the right field line to score Bertucio.
- Bertucio and Fisher had RBIs in the seventh before James Kantner doubled to center to drive in both. The four-run seventh for the Blue Jays made it 10-2.
- Knight tripled in the ninth for good measure to knock in two more.
- Manning was a team-best 4-for-5 in game two as six of the nine batters had at least two hits.

UP NEXT
Elizabethtown and Scranton will conclude their Landmark Conference series tomorrow afternoon back at Volpe Field. Rainy weather on Sunday has forced the teams to move the start time back to 3:30 p.m. instead of the regularly scheduled 12 p.m. start.
