Rams Take Pair From Bloomfield; Improve to Second Place in CACC

Box Score 1 | Box Score 2

The Philadelphia University baseball team continued their excellent form in conference play, downing Bloomfield College 10-0 and 6-3 in two seven-inning affairs at Alumni Field this afternoon.

The wins up the Rams' overall record to 6-14 but more importantly they move to 5-2 in the league, good for second place in the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) standings.

Freshman pitcher Jared Farbman (Philadelphia, Pa./Central) struck out ten and went the distance in game one to improve to 3-0 in his first season.  He was aided by a seven-hit, six-run bottom of the first from the Rams offense, which batted around in the opening frame.

In the nightcap, the Rams rallied from three-down to score six unanswered runs to take the season series two games to one versus the Deacons.

Sophomore second baseman Tyler Mentzer (Gettysburg, Pa. /Delone Catholic; pictured) turned in a fine day at the plate, going 4-for-8 combined in the twinbill, including two doubles, two runs scored, four RBI and a clutch two-out bases-clearing triple in the bottom of the sixth in game two that lifted the Rams to victory.

Up next for Head Coach Mark Heineman's team are a pair of weekend CACC doubleheaders at Alumni Field; on Saturday vs. Caldwell College and on Sunday vs. Chestnut Hill College, both beginning at 12 noon.
