Northeastern Deals Batmen First Loss On Four-Hitter in Twinbill Opener

Crimson Rebounds for 6-1 Win in Nightcap

Singles by Mickey Maspons, Tony DiCesare and Gaylord Lyman got Harvard a 2-1 lead and two runners on in the fourth. An intentional walk to Weller loaded the bases, McGillis bobbled Kay's grounder to short, and Harvard led by two.

The Crimson added three more in the fifth off singles by Rivera, Scott Vierra and Gaylord Lyman and bunts by Maspons and Paul Vallone.

Musselman said neither the blister nor the 8 2/3 innings of work would hinder his pitching in the first game of Harvard's twinbill with Princeton Sunday. "It was just a little blister," he said. "I knew it was going to break sooner or later."

Charlie Marchese and Chris Marchok will face Navy when Harvard's Eastern League season starts Saturday. Presz will pitch the nightcap Sunday.
