ROBBY PEREZ & AARON DIFRUSCIO LEAD DOLPHINS WITH CLUTCH
HITTING.
SYRACUSE, NY-The Le Moyne College Dolphins took two more
games from the Cornell Big Red today at Dick Rockwell Field. The
scheduled double header was a pair of seven inning games. Clutch
hitting in game one of the double header was sparked by Robby Perez
and Aaron DiFruscio. The game was knotted at three by a Perez RBI
run tying single through the box in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Following Perez’s at bat, DiFruscio’s pinch hit RBI
single turned out to be the game winning hit. The double header
sweep improves the Dolphins to 16-16. The Big Red fall to 10-19 on
the season.
It was freshman Jeff Tardiff’s dominant performance that
allowed the Dolphins comeback. Tardiff allowed three runs through
six complete innings of work. Sophomore Luke Nellis came in for his
third save this season.
Senior’s Robby Perez and Corey O’Neill, along with
sophomore Chris Edmondson collected multi-hit games.
