FREDERICK, Md. – The Lebanon Valley baseball team used a game-two offensive outburst to salvage a split at Hood College in MAC Commonwealth action in Frederick, Md. on Saturday afternoon. The Dutchmen dropped the opener 3-2 before blowing out the Blazers 13-2 in the nightcap. LVC now sits at 12-8, 11-5 MACC, while Hood is now 6-16, 4-12 MACC.

The opening game of the afternoon was a pitcher's duel from the start with baserunners hard to come by for both sides. The first two frames flew by with no runs and just one hit. The Blazers would get on the board in the bottom of the third however, taking advantage of a Dutchmen error. Saylor would reach first via an error and would come around to score two batters later on a Rampone triple to left-center to give Hood a 1-0 lead. The Blazers would load the bases with just one out but Kyle Kingsbury worked out of trouble inducing a lineout and a strikeout to keep the score at 1-0.

Hood would push their lead out to three in the bottom of the fourth again on a triple by Rampone, this time scoring a pair. LVC would finally break the shutout in the top of the sixth when Ethan Hurd left the yard with a solo homer to left, cutting the deficit to two. With the Dutchmen trailing 3-1 headed into their final at-bat, Michael Leri led off the seventh with a solo bomb to center and LVC found themselves down just one. The next three batters would go down in order and LVC fell 3-2.
 
Inside The Numbers
  • Ethan Hurd led the LVC offense going 2-for-2 with an RBI and his first career home run.
  • Michael Leri launched his second homer of the season, the other coming back against these same Blazers on March 21.
  • Rampone led the Hood attack with a pair of triples and all three RBI.
  • Kyle Kingsbury was strong on the mound despite the loss, tossing six innings allowing just two earned runs and striking out ten, which matches his career high he set back in 2019.
  • Howell kept the LVC hitters off balance all day allowing just four hits and two runs in six innings of work for Hood.

Lebanon Valley 13, Hood 2

LVC Lineup
1. Towers (RF) 2. DeClerico (3B), 3. Leri (1B) 4. Bulgia (CF) 5. Holdredge (DH) 6. Smith (2B) 7. Hurd (LF) Santoro (SS) 9. Blair (C), Ward (P)

Game two saw plenty of Dutchmen offense as LVC scored 13 runs, their third most in a game this season, and most since March 27 when they plated 14 in a win over Messiah. After a pair of scoreless innings to start the game, both teams would get on the board in the third. Michael Leri would single home Luke Blair in the top half of the frame before Hood would answer with a Sommor RBI-single.

The fourth and fifth innings saw no runs but LVC would put some space between them and Hood in the sixth as they scored five runs in the inning. The Dutchmen used three hits, a walk, an HBP, and a Blazer error to score the five runs. A bases-loaded walk to Bryan Towers would score the first run of the inning followed by a Chris DeClerico single to bring home two Dutchmen as LVC now led 4-1. The final two runs of the sixth would come via TJ Holdredge who singled to center to score Towers and DeClerico as LVC pushed their lead out to five. The Blazers would get one run back in the bottom half of the inning with the Dutchmen holding a 6-2 lead after six.

The Dutchmen would put the Blazers away in the final two innings, scoring seven runs on nine hits combined. Holdredge and Conor Smith picked up RBI in the eighth inning and in the ninth it was Holdredge again along with Leri picking up RBI as LVC coasted to the 13-2 win.

Inside The Numbers
  • The Dutchmen offense tied their season-best with 17 hits in the win.
  • TJ Holdredge led the high-powered LVC lineup with four hits and five RBI.
  • Chris DeClerico finished with three hits and three runs scored. Holdredge and DeClerico were two of six Dutchmen with multiple hits in the game.
  • Sommer led Hood with three hits and an RBI.
  • Brendan Ward picked up the win with six strong innings allowing just one earned run. Hunter Tipton would record his second save of the season after tossing three shutout frames in relief.
