Senior centerfielder Scott Carmack was then hit by a pitch from Tiger junior Chris Higgins. A sacrifice bunt from sophomore catcher Brian Lentz advanced the runners and senior left fielder Joe Llanes' groundout sent Hendricks home to give Harvard a 1-0 lead.
But that lead was short-lived as Princeton retaliated in the top of the third inning. Senior second baseman Tim Phillips led off the inning with a double. Then, Harvard starting pitcher Barry Wahlberg hit left fielder Jon Watterson with a pitch to send him to first base. Wahlberg's wild pitch to shortstop Pat Boran advanced both runners into scoring position.
Boran then singled to send Phillips home and put Princeton on the board. First baseman Andrew Hanson then flied out to left field, batting in Princeton's second run as Watterson tagged up to score.
Princeton retained the 2-1 lead until the bottom of the fifth inning when Mager began a Crimson rally with a double. Junior third baseman Nick Carter singled Mager home to tie the game at 2-2.
