Trinity Baseball Sweeps Brandeis

Waltham, Mass. - The No. 6-ranked Trinity College Bantam baseball team won both ends of a home doubleheader over the Brandeis University Judges, 10/13-4/3, this afternoon.  The Judges had a 4-2 advantage going into the sixth inning of the first game before giving the game up and the Bantams scored eight runs in the top of the fifth to go on to win, 13-3, in the nightcap.  The Judges drop to 15-21 while Trinity moves to 24-4.  Bantam senior co-captain C Sean Killeen (Greenfield, Mass.) and junior 1B Kent Graham (Longmeadow, Mass.) went 7-for-15 combined with six runs scored and eight RBI. 

Brandeis senior P James Collins (s. Boston, Mass.) gave up only three earned runs in five innings with a win lined up before Trinity gave him the no-decision.  He struck out four and gave up seven hits.  Brandeis picked up a 4-2 lead in the bottom of the second inning after Trinity had scored one run in each of the first two innings.  The highlight of the inning was a two-RBI double by Brandeis C Artie Posch (Hopedale, Mass.) to put the Judges ahead 3-2.  Posch was then driven in by a sacrifice fly to centerfield by rookie CF Sean O'Hare (Southampton, Mass.).  

Trinity would be held scoreless until the top of the sixth inning as the Bantams scored three runs to go up 5-4.  They added to their 5-4 lead in the top of the seventh as they put up a five spot to go onto win, 10-4.  The Bantams starting sophomore P Andrew Janiga (Ellington, Conn.) threw a complete game with seven strike outs and scattering five Brandeis hits. 

In the second game Brandeis fell down early, as Trinity scored three runs in the first two innings.  Brandeis got on the board in the bottom of the third to score two runs on a O'Hare two-run home run to centerfield.  The Bantams answered again in the top of the fifth inning.  They would score eight runs on seven hits as 12 batters stepped to the plate in the inning.
