        BRONX, N.Y. (March 18, 2012) – The Maritime baseball team split its first conference doubleheader of the 2012 season Sunday afternoon against Yeshiva University at William Taft High School. The Privateers won the first game by the score of 26-3, before falling in the second game, 5-2. With the split, Maritime's record moves to 8-5 (1-1 Skyline), while the Maccabees improve to 1-12 (1-5 Skyline).
 
        Junior Joey Semler (Kirkland, Wash./Lake Washington) (Kirkland, Wash./Edmonds C.C.) was 2-for-3 in the first game with six RBIs, including a 3-RBI triple and a sacrifice fly. Freshman Thomas Bauer (Wantagh, N.Y./MacArthur) chipped in with five RBIs after a 3-for-5 performance. Five other Privateers had multiple-RBI games. On the mound, junior Trevor Cannella (Sea Cliff, N.Y./North Shore) (Sea Cliff, N.Y./North Shore) pitched a complete game, seven innings, allowing three runs on seven hits and striking out six with one walk. He improves to 2-0 on the young season. Yeshiva's junior Jonathan Berger suffered the loss, his third of the season.
 
        In game two, Maritime jumped on the board first in the top of the opening inning with RBI hits by freshman Joseph Longo (Port Jefferson Station, N.Y./St. John Baptist) and Semler. The Privateers failed to hit in the clutch, however, as they left a batter on base in every inning – and in each inning a runner was stranded in scoring position, including four innings where a potential run was just 90 feet away on third base. The Macs took a 3-2 lead in the bottom of the third on a sacrifice fly by sophomore Joel Feigenbaum (Chicago, Ill.) and a two-RBI double by Jake Frankel (Tarzana, Calif.). Yeshiva added two more runs in the bottom of the fifth.
 
        Freshman Paul Pfundstein (Deer Park, N.Y./Deer Park) (Deer Park, N.Y./Deer Park) suffered the loss, allowing three runs on two hits with four strikeouts and three walks. He was replaced in the fourth by freshman Robert Silvestri (Staten Island, N.Y./St. Joseph by the Sea), who allowed two runs on four hits with three Ks. Silvestri gave way to junior Max Lockwood (Babylon, N.Y./Babylon) (Babylon, N.Y./Babylon), who pitched a scoreless sixth inning, allowing one hit and one walk with two strikeouts. Joel Feigenbaum got the win for Yeshiva, the team's first of the season.
 
        The Privateers return to action on Tuesday, March 20, when they travel to take on arch-rival Kings Point. Game time of the single, nine-inning contest is scheduled for 4 p.m. at the Mariners' Lower Roosevelt Field.
