NU falls to Bryant 5-4
May 11, 2009
Bryant University Baseball Complex (Smithfield, R.I.)
The Huskies traveled to Smithfield, R.I. to face the Bryant Bulldogs in a non-conference game. The game moved a a quick clip with neither team scoring a run until the bottom of the fourth inning and from that point forward both teams struggled to put their bats on the ball until both teams rallied in the ninth.
Andrew Leenhouts pitched the first three inning of the game for the Huskies. Leenhouts struck out four while allowing only two hits. JT Ross came in for the fourth inning.
Bryant got a pair of runs off Ross in the fourth inning to make it a 2-0 ball game after four. Ross would keep the Bulldogs scoreless over the next two innings. Things looked dangerous in the sixth inning but David Gustafson made a brilliant shoe-string catch in right center to keep the Bulldogs off the base paths.
The Huskies cut the lead in half in the top of the seventh as James Donaldson was able to score off a Bulldogs error.
Bryant built their lead back to two in the bottom half of the seventh against Russ Lloyd who came in for JT Ross. The Bulldogs scored off a wild pitch that allowed the runner from second to advance to third and the third base runner to score.
Things would look dim for the Huskies going into the ninth but the Huskies offense began to churn as Frank Compagnone and James Donaldson both reached base. With runners on first and second senior captain Frank Pesanello did what he does best, and that is send a ball over the wall. Pesanello smoked his team leading 10th home run of the season over the right field fence to give the Huskies a 4-3 lead.
Dan Zehr entered the ball game in the ninth inning and things started poorly for the Huskies as the first batter reached on an error. The next batter reached on a single and after recording two outs, Zehr could not get the final out before Vigurs hit a single down the left field line to win the ball game.
Northeastern returns to the field on Tuesday to face Rhode Island at 3:30 p.m.
