After batting around in the third inning to score three runs, Harvard rubbed salt in Tufts' and Horgan's wounds by adding four more runs in the fifth inning, to raise the score to 13-2. Pakalnis--who enjoyed a fine game both at shortstop and at the plate--drilled a 2-2 pitch past the centerfielder for a double, scoring Kay and DePalo.

Frank Morelli followed with his third hit of the day, driving a 2-2 pitch over the left-centerfield wall for the Crimson's first home run of the young season.

Morelli, one of four Crimson players who turned in a multiple-hit performance yesterday, was starting as catcher for the first time in college.

"I got a lot of work in Florida [over spring break]," the sophomore said, "so I was pretty comfortable out there. It's much easier to call a game when the pitchers are on."

Pakalnis also stood out defensively by succeeding on all six chances at shortstop--including two good fielder's choice throws to second baseman Kay after grabbing balls hit to his right.

The junior shortstop tallied the Crimson's second and final home run of the day, nailing a solo shot off Horgan.

THE NOTEBOOK: Kay, Morelli, DePalo, and Pakalnis combined for 10 of Harvard's 14 hits and scored nine of the Crimson's 15 runs...Tufts didn't set down the Crimson in order until the eighth inning...Beal gave up 10 hits and nine runs in his 2- 1/3 innings...Harvard now leads the series between the two squads, 68-28-1...The Crimson plays Boston College today at Soldiers Field.
