Baseball Splits With Princeton

The Crimson earned another run in the fourth inning when San Salvador hit a triple over the head of Princeton left fielder Jon Watterson. Mager brought him home with a sacrifice bunt to bring the score to 2-0.

Senior ace John Birtwell continued his excellence from earlier this season, allowing just two hits through the first five innings. But he surrendered three hits in the sixth inning, including the two-out two-run homer to Hanson.

Senior Tim Philips had opened up the inning with a stand-up double that set up Hanson to tie the game at 2-2. Birtwell recovered his composure to strike out junior Eric Voelker to end the Tigers' inning.

But the Crimson struck back in the bottom of the sixth inning to take the win. Senior Scott Carmack and Llanes started off the rally after Boehle hit them both with pitches. San Salvador then singled to left field to drive in Carmack and send Llanes to second base.
