ANNVILLE, Pa. - Jason Barthold (3-0) got all of the run support he needed in a seven-run second inning, but that didn't stop his team from piling it on throughout a 13-10 win over #20 Neumann.

Aaron Mills led off the second inning with a double to right. He advanced to third on a wild pitch and came around to score when Jordan Witmer reached on a dropped fly ball to center.

Mike Specht prolonged the rally with a one-out double to score Witmer from second. Andrew Germann drew a two-out walk and scored along with Specht on a two-run double to right by Derek Brousseau.

The Dutchmen got a run in the fourth and two in the fifth. Their final two scores came in the eighth, when Mills singled in a run and scored on a triple by Rhody.
