Rocky Campaign Closes With a Loss

Reynolds’ error was followed by a Spatola RBI single, a walk, and another RBI single by Melchionda, causing manager Joe Walsh to replace Perlman with senior Jon Strangio. Strangio gave up an RBI hit to Sudol but was able to keep the damage at four runs.

The righty, who missed his entire junior season and most of his sophomore year due to injury, went the distance for the Crimson, throwing 3.1 innings of one-run ball in his final collegiate game.

“It was good to send him out on top,” Albright said. “He threw real well for us...everyone was pretty excited for him.”

The Harvard offense was unable to muster any sort of rally against the BC bullpen over the final four innings, recording only one hit.

“We ran into some good pitching, as we have every time we face BC,” Reynolds said.

The Eagles added another run on an RBI single by Wiswall in the sixth, putting BC ahead by what would become the final score, 7-3.

Perlman took the loss for the Crimson, allowing six runs (two earned) in 4.2 innings and finishing the year with a record of 1-2. Hunter Gordon picked up the victory for the Eagles after throwing two scoreless innings in relief of Clemens.

O’Neill and Larrow each had two hits, accounting for four of the Crimson’s six hits on the afternoon. Spatola and Hamlet each had three hits for Boston College.

Despite ending the season on a sour note, the Crimson took the loss in stride.

“Baseball’s a luck game sometimes, and things just didn’t go our way,” O’Neill said.
