BRONX, NY - Returning to conference play, the Yeshiva Baseball Team fell to the University of Mount Saint Vincent, dropping a doubleheader to the Dolphins by scores of 19-1 and 12-1 on Sunday, Mar. 23rd.
The Maccabees were led by
Jake Arnow, with the sophomore catcher tallying two hits and an RBI over the pair of contests.
With the result, the Macs are now 0-11, 0-6 in conference play.
HOW IT HAPPENED - Game 1 (L, 19-1)
- The Maccabees drew first blood, taking an early 1-0 lead when an Arnow double drove in Coby Kamish.
- However, this would prove YU's only run of game one. The Macs only managed one more baserunner through the next five innings, when Assaf Perl smacked a single to the shortstop in the top of the fifth.
- Yeshiva's best chance to score again came in the seventh. Pinch-running for Jacob Canner, Lior Bongart advanced to second on a passed ball, and then stole third with just one out. Unfortunately, a double play not only left him stranded, but ended the game.
- YU's pitching staff experienced similar hardships, conceding 11 runs in the first, one run in the fourth, and seven runs in the sixth.

- The Maccabees were able to get baserunners on in each of the first six innings, but could not bring them home. It was not until the seventh that the men in blue and white finally broke through, with Aharon Weiden galloping home after Kamish grounded into a double play.
- However, the YU defense could not keep the Dolphin bats in check, surrendering two runs in the first, six runs in the second, and four runs in the third.
