Baseball Downed by McDaniel

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. – The New England College baseball team suffered a 17-4 loss at the hands of McDaniel College on Saturday in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, in the team's third game of their spring break trip. 

THE BASICS 
Score: McDaniel College 17, New England College 4 
Records: Green Terror 3-4 | Pilgrims 1-4 

HOW IT HAPPENED 

  • The visitors from Maryland got a pair of runs across in the top of the first inning on back-to-back sacrifice flies to jump out to an early 2-0 lead. In the third, the Green Terror would add five runs capped off by a grand slam by infielder Patrick Kelly (Great Falls, Va.).  
  • In the bottom of the third, the 'Grims would load the bases for senior infielder Johnny Cannavo (Weymouth, Mass.) who would come through with a single up the middle, scoring junior infielder Brady Philibotte (Weare, N.H.) and graduate infielder Bryce Worth (Southington, Conn.) for the team's first two runs of the night. Down 8-2 in the fourth, NEC would add one more on a bases loaded wild pitch scoring graduate catcher Aaron Robertson (Weare, N.H.). 
  • McDaniel would open the floodgates in the fifth, adding eight runs in the inning – four of which came on Kelly's second grand slam of the game. 
  • In the sixth, after sophomore outfielder Harold Martinez (Wethersfield, Conn.) led off the inning with a single to right center, he would score all the way from first on a double off the wall in left field by junior infielder Tyler Fenton (Wilmington, Mass.). McDaniel would add one more run in the eighth inning before a scoreless ninth inning would finally put an end to the game. 

INSIDE THE NUMBERS 

  • McDaniel sophomore starting pitcher Tyson Nercessian (Crofton, Md.) allowed two runs across three innings of work. Freshman Aiden Castile (Massillon, Ohio) was credited with the win in relief. 
  • Senior Brett Patnode (Weare, N.H.) took the loss on the mound for the 'Grims, going three innings. In the batter's box, he went 1-for-1 with a pair of walks – reaching base at least three times for the third consecutive game. Sophomore Christopher Chagnon (Portsmouth, R.I.) struck out two in his two innings of relief, while sophomore Jackson Round (Cayuga, Canada) threw a scoreless ninth inning with one punch out. 

UP NEXT 

  • NEC is back on the field on Sunday afternoon when they face off against Susquehanna University at Carolina Forest High School starting at 2:30 PM.
