Gettysburg's Top Performers  
Kenyon's Top Performers
  • Nate Rosen: 4-5, Run
  • Edwin Groff: 2-4, 3B, 3 RBI
  • Andrew Rabinowitz: 1-3, 2B, 2 Runs, 2 RBI, 2 HBP
 
Breakdown
  • Kenyon picked up the game's first run in the second inning with Alexander Hoskins hitting a one-out double and coming in to score on a single by Groff. The Bullets made a big out on the play as junior catcher JR McCloskey (Huntington, N.Y./Chaminade) fired the relay to third base to get Kenyon's second runner.
  • Gettysburg went to work in the top half of the third inning with six singles and two hit-by-pitches contributing to six runs. The top of the order recorded three-straight RBI base knocks with Miller, Muir, and junior Aaron Kirby (Sandy Hook, Conn./St. Joseph) putting the Bullets on the board. After the second out of the inning, Decker brought home two more runs and one batter latter, came home to score on a single by Manieri down the left-field line.
  • A two-run double by Rabinowitz cut the lead down to 6-3 in the bottom of the third, but Weinbrum settled into a groove after that, retiring seven of the next eight batters heading into the sixth inning.
  • The Bullets led 7-4 when Kenyon put two runners on the bases via an error and a hit. Junior Ken Spadaccini (Cresskill, N.J./Cresskill) entered the game and immediately induced a double play to shortstop to quiet the threat.
  • Gettysburg added an insurance run as Manieri reached on an error and came around to score on a single by Muir to make it 8-4 in the top of the eighth inning.
  • The Lords scored two runs against Spadaccini in the eighth and threated to tie the game with the first two batters reaching on a single and an error to start the ninth inning. Clementi came into the game and promptly shut the door, striking out Rabinowitz and getting another double play to end the game.  
 
Where the Series Stands
Gettysburg improved to 3-0 all-time against Kenyon. The Bullets swept the Lords in a doubleheader during their spring break trip in 2017.
