FT. MYERS, Fla. –
The Lock
Haven University
baseball team (3-4) split a doubleheader with the Findlay
University (1-2) today in the first day of the Gene Cusic
Collegiate Classic. Senior first baseman Dave
Miller (Tyrone,
Pa./Bellwood-Antis) busted out of an early-season
slump, going 4-for-6 with two doubles and four RBI.
In game one, the Bald
Eagles jumped out to a 3-0 lead after the first inning.
Findlay
answered with two in the second, matched by LHU’s two in
the bottom half.
Miller drove in four of
the team’s six runs, supported by a 2-for-3 effort from
junior Kyle Elbin (Bedford,
Pa./Bedford).
Kurt Elbin (Bedford,
Pa./Bedford)
had a 1-for-3 day with three runs scored.
Sophomore
Blake Barbini
(Pittston,
Pa./Pittston Area)
threw 4.2 innings, striking out two and improving to 1-1.
Junior Kenny Janiszewski (Tunkhannock,
Pa./Tunkhannock)
shut down the Oilers for
the final 2.1 to pick up his second save.
Game two was an amazing
pitcher’s dual between LHU’s freshman
Pat Young (Allensville,
Pa./Indian Valley)
and Findlay’s Kromer.
Kromer shut down the Bald
Eagle bats, allowing just three hits in
the blanking.
Young caught the freshman
jitters in the first, walking and hitting a batter before
giving up a single that would bring in both of Findlay’s
runs. Young finished with six innings walking just two and
fanning three.
Miller went 2-for-3 with a
double.
Miller,
Elbin, Barbini, Janizewski, Young and the rest of the Bald
Eagles are back in action tomorrow at 4 p.m. when they
face Merrimack University
