In the top of the sixth inning, Harvard Coach Joe Walsh replaced Wahlberg with junior pitcher Justin Nyweide. Wahlberg had allowed five hits while striking out two in his five innings of work.
The next seven innings were scoreless frames marked by stranded baserunners and dominant pitching. Young's run in the 13th was the only mar on Nyweide's seven innings. He allowed four runs and struck out five on the day.
Harvard had big hits from Hendricks, who went 3-for-4, and Mager, who went 2-for-5, but that did not outweigh the Crimson's three errors in this tight game.
