Baseball Sweeps Two From Columbia

"I love playing in high scoring games," Binkowski said. "But they can definitely get you a little nervous."

Trailing 5-3 with two outs and the bases loaded in the sixth, wind wreaked havoc with an infield pop up that dropped in to score a pair and keep the inning alive.

Harvard went on to score seven runs in the inning, six of which came with two outs, to take a commanding 9-5 lead heading into the seventh and final inning.

Starting with a leadoff double from Carmack, sophomore catcher Brian Lentz singled and Bridich drew a walk to load the bases with only one away.

With the winning run at the plate, Columbia junior Mike Orr fell behind 3-0 in the count before walking Binkowski to score a run.

The walk to Binkowski was it for Orr, who was replaced by sophomore right-hander Adam Schwartz out of the bullpen.
