Kalyvas, who entered the game 0-1, was clutch for the Crimson. After walking the first batter he faced to load the bases, he calmly struck out the next batter and induced a fly ball to rightfield to end the inning.

The score remained knotted at five until the bottom of the sixth, when Forst laced a double into the gap into rightcenter to drive in Carey--who reached on an error--for the go-ahead run.

Kalyvas's luck ran out in he top half of the seventh. After an error by Carey put a runner on Kalyvas gave up a blast to junior catcher Jeff Waldron that gave the Eagles a 7-6 lead. The hard-throwing Madden then came in for Kalyvas and retired the next three batters, but the Crimson still entered the bottom of the seventh trailing by one.

The Crimson was up to the challenge, however, rallying in the bottom half of the inning. Huling led off with an infield single and moved to second on a Ralph sacrifice bunt. Then junior Todd Harris drove a pinch-hit single to right to tie the game at seven.

"We got clutch hitting from a lot of guys today," Walsh said. "Harris came up big with the game-tying single and then beat out a bunt in the second game. If I had nine Harrises, I'd win a lot of ball games."

After a scoreless eighth, the Eagles led off the ninth with a single off of Madden, who had retired six straight. With one out the Eagles' base runner moved to third on a botched pick-off attempt by the Crimson hurler, as Madden missed the sign and threw to first with no one covering. After a Waldron sacrifice fly, the Crimson once again entered the bottom half of an inning needing a run to stay alive.

Harris drew a two-out walk from Nolan to keep Harvard alive, and pinch runner Scott Carmack stole second to put the tying run in scoring position. Then Maloney committed the cardinal sin by putting the winning run on base with an intentional walk and setting the stage for Woodfork's big blast.

The junior third baseman smoked the offering from Nolan--Woodfork's former high school teammate--to the right-centerfield fence on the hop to give the Crimson yet another come-from-behind victory, 9-8.

"I was surprised by the intentional walk," Woodfork said. "I was looking for something to hit the other way, and [Nolan] hung a curve. I just closed my eyes and swung."

Harvard 9, Boston College 7

Playing its sixth game in four days, the Crimson forced Walsh to go deep into his staff in the nightcap, throwing Wells against B.C. freshman lefthander Chris Gannon.

Wells looked shaky throughout and struggled to keep his breaking pitches down in the strike zone, but he lasted three innings and allowed only one unearned run before his defense collapsed in the B.C. half of the fourth.

Trailing 2-1 due to a pair of engineered runs, the Eagles took advantage of errors by Woodfork and Forst to string together five runs and chase Wells.

After sophomore designated hitter Steve Langone led off with a solo homer, junior second baseman Mike Gambino followed an infield single with a hot grounder to third that snuck under Woodfork's glove.

Wells then walked third baseman Joe Durkin to stack the sacks with no outs, meriting a call to the bullpen for senior righthander Mike Marcucci (3-0).
