Blue Jays Win Fourth Straight, Top Alvernia 8-2

READING, Pa. - The Elizabethtown College baseball team won its fourth straight game, topping Alvernia, 8-2, in non-conference action Wednesday afternoon.

With the win, the Blue Jays improve to 10-12 overall while the Wolves fall to 7-14-1.

Zach Rogacki and Nick Nutile each tallied an RBI for Alvernia.

Holding a 4-2 lead after five innings, the Blue Jays put their stamp on the game in the sixth inning. Fisher got the scoring started, knocking a single to left field and plating freshman RJ Agriss. A few batters later, a sacrifice fly by Bertucio made the score 6-2. Etown completed the inning by taking advantage of an error to score two more runs bringing the score to 8-2. The Blue Jays' pitching stoos strong the rest of the way, preserving the victory for Etown.
