Baseball Sweeps Doubleheader at Manhattan, Take Three of Four in Series

Frank Doelling throws first game gem, five Broncs had multiple hits on day

RIVERDALE, NY - Junior starting pitcher Frank Doelling (Riverside, NJ/Riverside) threw seven innings of one-run ball while striking out six to help the Rider University baseball team sweep Day 2 at Manhattan on Saturday afternoon. With the wins, the Broncs improve to 9-3 (9-3 MAAC) while the Jaspers fall to 1-7 (1-7 MAAC).

Doelling's only run allowed came from a Will Trochiano solo home run in the bottom of the third inning off of a 2-1 count to give the Jaspers a 1-0 lead. The Broncs immediately answered in the top of the fourth inning, plating four thanks to a two-RBI single from third baseman Jack Winsett (Cherry Hill, NJ/Eastern Regional) and a Manhattan throwing error scoring first baseman Luke Lesch (Gloucester Township, NJ/Gloucester Catholic) and Winsett. In the top of the fifth inning, the Broncs added two insurance runs from catcher Socrates Bardatsos's (Ridgefield, NJ/St. Joseph's Regional) RBI single and second baseman David Bermudez (East Brunswick, NJ/East Brunswick) scoring from a Jasper wild pitch.

In Game 2, designated hitter Tyler Stockwell (La Plata, MD/La Plata) singled to score centerfielder Sean McGeehan (Hamilton, NJ/Nottingham) in the top of the first inning before Manhattan answered with three runs of their own in the first two innings. Rightfielder Lou Priolo's (Voorhees, NJ/Eastern) sacrifice fly in the top of the third inning would start a streak of eight unanswered runs for the Broncs. Stockwell doubled to give the Broncs the lead three at-bats later that would not be reliquished. In the top of the fourth inning, Lesch and McGeehan would each hit two-run home runs later in the game.

Senior Sebastian Williamson came out of the bullpen in the nightcap to throw five scoreless innings, striking out eight while only allowing three hits.

NOTES
- Five Broncs had multiple hits on the day, with Bermudez, shortstop Jordan Erbe (Toms Rivers, NJ/Toms River South), McGeehan, Priolo, and Stockwell each getting two.
- The Broncs had three stolen bases on the day, but were caught stealing twice, ending a perfect 20-for-20 team streak on the basepaths without being thrown out.
- Sophomore Kenny Quijano (Teaneck, NJ/St. Mary's) started Game 2, throwing one and two-thirds innings and allowing three earned runs and four hits.

BRONCS BY THE NUMBERS
- McGeehan led the Broncs with four of the team's nine walks on the day, including three during Game 2 alone.
- The Broncs left nine on base during today's doubleheader, but stranded 23 Manhattan baserunners.

UP NEXT
The Broncs will travel to West Long Branch, NJ for the first of two consecutive Wednesday doubleheaders against Monmouth. First pitch for Game 1 is set for noon.
