Baseball blanks Swarthmore, 7-0

COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. – The Ursinus College baseball team scored three runs in the bottom of the first and never looked back in a 7-0 win over Swarthmore in a game shortened to five innings due to rain.

With the win, Ursinus improved to 14-14-1 and 5-9 in league play, while Swarthmore fell to 16-12, 8-6 in league play.

Senior pitcher Corey Weaver (West Grove, Pa./Avon Grove) gave up just one hit in the game, striking out and walking two in earning the win to improve to 4-2.

Senior left fielder Tommy Clarke (Whitehouse Station, N.J./Hunterdon) and sophomore center field Ben Gresh (Pottstown, Pa./Pottsgrove) each had three hits in the win.

In the first, Clarke and Gresh had RBI hits that scored sophomore shortstop Brandon Sullivan (Gilbertsville, Pa./Boyertown) and junior third baseman Rob Vogt (Basking Ridge, N.J./Seton Hall Prep).

Clarke would later score on a RBI double by sophomore first baseman Rich Guthridge (Schwenksville, Pa./Spring-Ford) to end the inning.

In the third, Clarke scored on a bases loaded walk, followed by Gresh scoring on a Garnet error.

Ursinus put two more on in the fifth as Gresh doubled home Clarke and Vogt.

Gresh finished with three RBI on the day.

Ursinus will head to McDaniel on Saturday.
