Knights Fall in Doubleheader at RIT

Rochester, NY – The first game ended early and the second game ended late, but both unfortunately concluded as defeats for the Clarkson University Baseball team as the Golden Knights dropped a doubleheader to RIT, 20-5 in seven innings and 6-5 in 11 innings, on Saturday afternoon.

Clarkson fell to 7-8 and 0-5 in conference games, while RIT moved to 10-9 and 5-0. The Knights are scheduled for a single nine-inning game versus Plattsburgh State on Tuesday at Jack Phillips Stadium.

The Golden Knights opened with two runs in the top of the first, immediately doubling their output from Friday's contest. Aidan Kuefner opened with a double down the line and then moved to third on a stolen base. Robert Fratangelo then singled up the middle to plate Kuefner, and came around himself on a double to right-center by Joe Pagano.

RIT responded with three in the bottom of the first on a Trent Rapp three-run homer to right, and the Tigers increased their lead to three in the bottom of the second on an Adam Marsh two-run single. The home team broke the game open with a five-spot in the bottom of the third. John Bagley singled in a run, Gil Merod's ground out sent another in, and Sam Kulp tripled in a run to make it 8-2. An error allowed another run to score and Marsh drove in an additional run with a single up the middle, putting the tally at 10-2.

Any twinge of home of a comeback for the Knights ended in the fourth inning as the Tigers scored double digits. Marsh singled in two, Jarin Moses singled in two more, Rapp hit a two-run homer, and Charlie Slaymaker hit a two-run shot to put the game out of reach.

Clarkson would score three runs late before the game was abbreviated due to the conference's new run rule. Kuefner drove in a run in the sixth, Pagano singled in a run in the seventh, and Beau Vardion hit a sac fly to drive in another run for the Knights.

In game two, Clarkson again scored in the first inning, this time putting up three runs in its first at bat. Kuefner led off with a double and scored one batter later on a single from CJ Cartier. Joe Figliolino then played bother Cartier and Robert Fratangelo, who had walked, to make it 3-0.

RIT got a run back when Charlie Slaymaker scored on a balk in the fourth, but the Knights scored twice in the sixth to take a 5-1 lead. Will Roda singled home Joe Pagano and Christopher Griggs in the top of the sixth to give the Knights a four-run cushion, but the lead evaporated in the bottom half of the frame. Three runs came in on a bases-clearing double by John Bagley and a groundout allowed Bagley to score later in the inning to tie the game.

Both offense were relatively quiet as game two advanced to extra innings. The Tigers were able to win in walk-off fashion in the bottom of the 11th. With one out, Randy Dodig and Adam Marsh had back-to-back hits and the former moved up to third on a wild pitch. Dodig would then score on a Jarin Moses single to right.
