Game 2 Box Score

Scranton, PA - Keystone College improved to 22-7 on the year and 11-1 in CSAC play as the Giants took a pair of games from Marywood Monday afternoon in Scranton.  Keystone used a seven-run fifth inning in the opener to break a 3-3 deadlock en route to a 10-3 win and got a two-run homer from Jose Garcia in the nightcap on there way to a 4-2 win.

Marywood (8-16, 1-10 CSAC) fell behind 1-0 to Keystone in the opening inning in game one but answered in the top of the second withan RBI single from Stephen Gaylets.  Gaylet's RBI scored Chris Ortiz, who doubled down the leftfield line to open the inning. 

Marywood would score two in the top of the fourth to take a 3-1 lead.  Gaylets again came up big, this time with a two-run single to center.  But the Giants quickly answered and tied the game with two runs in the bottom of the fourth before exploding for seven runs in the fifth to take a 10-3 lead.  Garcia doubled in two of those runs with a shot to left center.

Michael Meszoros started for Keystone and went four full innings but Adam Sosnowski got the win, his thrid of the season, after pitching two innings of scoreless relief.  Michael Ciavarella took the loss for Marywood after allowing eight earned runs in 4.2 innings of work.  Gaylets led the Pacers with a 2-for-3, 3 RBI effort in the opener.

In a closer nightcap, after Marywood got out of a bases loaded jam in the bottom of the fourth, Garcia hit a two-run shot in the bottom of the fifth to lift the Giants to the win.  Marywood had a 1-0 lead when Ortiz scored on a wild pitch in the second inning and the Pacer tied the game at 2-2 in the fourth when Zack Klien scored on an error.

Nicholas DeFebo, who entered the game with the bases loaded and two outs in the fourth, initially got the Pacers out of that jam but then gave up Garcia's homer and was credited with the loss.  Billy Kelly started and went 3.2 innings, allowing two runs on six hits. 

Marywood returns to action Wednesday when they host Immaculata in a single, nine inning game at 3:00 p.m.
