Baseball Stumbles in Series Opener

NEWARK, Del. – The Towson baseball team collected 10 hits Thursday afternoon, but it was not enough as the Tigers fell, 8-2, to Delaware in the first game of a three-game CAA series.
 
After the Blue Hens scored a pair of runs in the fourth, the Tigers (16-34-2, 8-14 CAA) got a run back in the fifth.  Singles from Brendan Butler and Tristan Howerton put runners on the corners for Mark Grunberg to deliver an RBI single to right field.  Towson would then load the bases with one out, but a strikeout and a popup ended the threat.
 
UD (22-21, 10-12 CAA) quickly responded in the home-half of the inning as a two-out double was followed by an RBI single from Zach Lopes.  Lopes would then steal second and score on an infield single from Norm Donkin.
 
The Blue Hens would add a run in the sixth and three more in the seventh before the Tigers got a run back in the ninth on a Grunberg RBI single to left field.
 
Grunberg led the Tigers at the plate by going 3-for-4 with a pair of RBIs.  Chris Henze added two hits.
 
Bruce Zimmermann (4-4) allowed eight runs over six innings in taking the loss.  Adam Davis (5-3) gave up just one run over 6.2 innings to earn the victory.
 
The two teams will play the middle game of the three-game series tomorrow afternoon at 3 p.m.  The Tigers must win the game to keep their postseason chances alive.
