Box Score
GETTYSBURG, Pa. – Harley Moore threw a complete-game four-hitter and the Dickinson College baseball team defeated Gettysburg 5-1 to complete a series sweep Thursday afternoon at Kirchhoff Field.
The Bullets (12-8, 2-4 CC) managed only three base runners through the first six innings before threatening in two of the final three frames. With one out in the seventh, Gettysburg loaded the bases on a single from sophomore
Al Posch and a pair of infield errors. But after freshman
Cory Karagjozi drilled a sacrifice fly to center, Moore escaped with a groundout.
After going down in order in the eighth, sophomores
Alex Freeman and
Nate Simon singled before Moore induced a game-ending pop-out.
Dickinson (15-9, 2-4 CC) won Tuesday's meeting with the Bullets 8-2 in Carlisle.

Joseph Tursi, Dickinson's No. 9 hitter, finished 4-for-4 with three runs while leadoff hitter Andrew Sterling was 3-for-4 with two RBIs for the Red Devils.
