Seils’s Great Start Leads Towson Baseball to Doubleheader Split at Winthrop

ROCK HILL, S.C. – The Towson University baseball team rode a strong pitching performance by game one starter Josh Seils to split the Saturday doubleheader at Winthrop, winning the first game 7-2 before falling in the second contest 7-3.
 
Towson (1-5) used a five-run second inning and a 6.1-inning performance by Seils to win the first game.  The Tigers tied the second game in the sixth inning, but Winthrop (2-4) broke away with four unanswered runs in the final innings to get the split.

  • Josh Seils (1-1) won game one, going 6.1 innings with a run and four strikeouts.  Nick Janowicz did not get a decision in his start in game two, going three innings with three runs and two strikeouts.  The loss went to Nick Ramanjulu (0-1), who had three runs in 2.2 innings of relief, striking out three.  Austin Weber, Jake Pecilunas and Kody Reeser all had scoreless relief outings.
