"Nick's hitting has been tremendous for us this year," Lentz said. "He's been able to lift the ball out of the park and has really come through for us in the clutch."
Batting 2-for-4 with a walk, Lentz hasn't cooled either.
The Ivy Rookie of the Week two weeks ago, Lentz is 5-for-12 in his last three games with three multi-hit performances in his last five starts.
Lentz, Carter, and Binkowski combined for five RBI as the bottom half of the order hit 11-for-12 with 9 RBI.
On its recent winning streak, Harvard has been scoring tremendously by key pinch-hits and strong batting up and down the order.
In Monday's doubleheader with Penn, junior outfielder Joe Llanes drove in the winning run with a pinch-hit single up the middle in the bottom of the eleventh, and junior catcher Scot Hopps doubled to the gap in right with the bases loaded in the fifth to score three.
Although not as dramatic yesterday, the Crimson bench continued to hit well as Hopps and sophomore outfielder Javy Lopez added pinch-hit singles in the ninth to score a pair and pad the Crimson lead.
