THROGGS NECK, N.Y. (April 22, 2014) – Coming off of a 4-3 drama-filled victory over Baruch, the Maritime baseball team looks to keep the momentum rolling with a win this Wednesday in a non-conference matchup against the visiting City College of New York. First pitch is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Reinhart Field.

LAST GAME RECAP
On Wednesday, the Privateers were able to pull out a one-run victory against the Bearcats of Baruch.

In that contest, senior Nick Galli (Staten Island, N.Y./St. Joseph by the Sea) went 2-for-4 at the dish, scoring a run and driving in an RBI that tied the game for the Privateers in the top half of the sixth frame. Later that inning, freshman Brian McLaughlin (Massapequa, N.Y./St. John the Baptist) broke things open with a two-run home run to give the Privateers a 3-1 advantage.

Junior right-hander James Very (Pittsburgh, Pa./Mt. Lebanon) toed the rubber and was able to hurl a complete game, allowing three earned runs on four walks and 11 hits. He added four strikeouts in his first career start.

SCOUTING THE BEAVERS
