BROOKLYN, N.Y. – LIU Brooklyn scored seven runs in the bottom of the sixth to break a 1-1 tie in game one and scored six runs in the fifth inning to erase a two-run deficit in game two as they swept the Bryant University baseball team, 8-1 and 7-3, Saturday afternoon at LIU Field.
With the sweep, the Blackbirds (11-16, 3-4 NEC) handed the Bulldogs (12-13, 5-2 NEC) their first two conference losses of the season.
Game One
Drew Walsh started the sixth with a single up the middle, Albert Faz's ground ball to deep short turned into an infield single and Julian Castro loaded the bases as his sac bunt was thrown high to first. The Black and Gold then summoned sophomore Jonathan Cohen (Norwalk, Conn.) from the bullpen and he walked Chris Untereiner and Derek Stupski to force in two runs to make it 3-1, LIU. Mike Garcia followed with the biggest blow of the inning, a grand slam home run over the left-center field wall. The Blackbirds would tack on one more run on a Pete Leonello double.
