SCHENECTADY, N.Y. - The visiting Trinity College Bantams scored seven runs in the sixth and seventh innings to cut a five-run deficit to 8-7 but fell just short of a comeback in their final baseball game of the 2022 regular season this evening at Union College.  Trinity falls to 14-17 with its fifth loss in a row heading into the opening post-season series at Hamilton College this weekend.  Union improves to 15-16.  Junior OF Brandon Chow (Greenwich, Conn.) went 3-for-4 with a walk, a run and a stolen base, while sophomore James Stefanowicz (Stamford, Conn.) had a three-run homer and a sacrifice fly for the Bantams.

Union jumped out to an 8-0 lead after four innings, including three runs on home runs in the first and fourth frames.  Stefanowicz belted his three-run blast in the sixth inning and junior SS Patrick Dillon (Bronx, N.Y.) brought two more runs home in the seventh with a double and scored on a Dutchmen error.  Stefanowicz hit a sacrifice fly in the seventh to make the score, 8-7, but Trinity could manage just one single the rest of the way.  Four Trinity pitchers combined to allow just a single run over 5.1 innings, including junior Cooper McGrath (South Hamilton, Mass.) who struck out the side in the eighth frame.
