Stats From the Trip (10 Games)

Oberlin, Ohio – A day after falling to both Carthage and Carleton, the Oberlin College baseball team got its revenge against both schools, walking-off with a 7-6 win against the Red Men before outlasting the Knights 7-5.
 
Oberlin improved to 9-8 overall and 6-4 on the trip with four games left to play over the next two days.
 
Carthage Recap
 
Oberlin trailed 6-3 heading into the bottom of the ninth, but the senior-laden Yeomen once again proved their resolve by never giving up, earning their second walk-off win of the week.
 
In the ninth, the middle part of the Yeomen line-up loaded the bases with seniors with one out as Andrew Hutson followed Jeff Schweighoffer's single with a double of his own, and then Danny Baldocchi worked a walk to bring up classmate Benjamin Whitener.
 
Yesterday in the same situation with the Yeomen trailing by four, 11-7, against the Red Men, Whitener belted a three-RBI double to the gap in right center. Today, after falling behind in the count he worked a walk to plate the first run of the inning.
 
Following a strikeout, Head Coach Adrian Abrahamowicz went to his bench and inserted the hot-hitting Mike Masella to pinch hit. The sophomore from Randolph, New Jersey, came through with the biggest hit of his Yeomen career, sending a two-run single through the right side as pinch runner Sam Harris and Hutson scored to tie the game.
 
Junior catcher Blaise Dolcemaschio would then step to the plate and win it for the Yeomen as he sent a hard line drive to gap in left center to allow pinch runner Josh Newborn to walk in for the game-winning run.
 
Junior Harrison Wollman got the start on the mound and battled his way through seven strong innings. He allowed five runs (four earned), while fanning five and walking just two. The Red Men did register 13 hits off the right-hander, but many of those were softly hit balls that found a hole.
 
Junior Macabe Camps earned the win as he allowed just one run over the final two innings. He is now 1-0 on the year.
 
Wollman pitched out of a bases loaded jam in the first, holding the Red Men to just one run. In the third, the Red Men would touch him up for three runs on four hits and an error, but from that point on he settled in nicely.
 
Oberlin scratched out a single tally in the third on Dolcemaschio's sac fly to left.

The Yeomen entered the bottom of the seventh trailing 5-1.  However, they plated a pair of runs in the frame, but it could have been more as they left the bases loaded. The three stranded were a part of 12 total for the Yeomen. The two runs came courtesy of bases-loaded walks to Hutson and Baldocchi.
 
In the eighth, Carthage would push one across to reclaim a three-run lead, but Camps shut them down in the ninth to setup the magical walk-off finish.
 
Oberlin had just nine hits in the game, compared to 18 from Carthage, but that did not mater in the end as the Yeomen dropped the Red Men's record to 9-2.
 
Carleton Recap
 
Against the Knights, Hutson went 4-for-5 and freshman Derek Martin finished 3-for-4 with four RBIs to help lift the Yeomen to the 7-5 victory.
 
Sophomore southpaw Kyle Dominy earned his second win of the trip, tossing 6.1 innings. He scattered nine hits and allowed four runs along the way.
 
Rookie sidearmer Milo Sklar nailed down the final seven outs of the game to record his first-career save.
 
In the Knights' ninth, the situation got dicey, as Sklar appeared to have Nolan Baker struck out twice, but the Carleton designated hitter was ultimately credited with a seven-pitch lead-off walk. Following a failed sac bunt attempt, Sklar struck out Griffin Bolte looking to bring up Jordan Zoellmer. He too would strike out – swinging at a pitch in the dirt – but the catcher's throw to first to complete the played pulled Schweighoffer off the bag at first to extend the game and load the bases.
 
In search of that illusive fourth-out, Sklar got Walker Froehling to hit a chopper to defensive replacement Darren Zaslau at shortstop as he gloved it and made the short flip over to second to end the game.
 
The Yeomen posted single tallies in the first and third innings on a single by Baldocchi and double down the left field line by Hutson.
 
Carleton would get back to even, plating a pair in the bottom of the third, but the Yeomen responded right back with three in the the fourth. Baldocchi and Whitener both singled and were sacrificed into scoring position by Justin Cruz. Martin, the rookie from Los Angeles, California, would come through with a two-run opposite-field single to left to put the Yeomen back out in front. Ryan Bliss would later drive a fly ball to deep center to plate Martin to make it a 5-2 Yeomen advantage.
 
The two foes would trade runs in the fifth and sixth with the Yeomen score coming courtesy of Martin's single to center that sent Whitener across the dish.
In the bottom of the seventh, the Knights cut the Yeomen lead to one, 6-5, using four hits to score two runs.
 
Oberlin would add an insurance run in the eighth as Whitener got things going with a double down the left field line and following Cruz's third sac bunt of the game, Martin would score Harris with another single to center to cap the game's scoring and setup the nerve-racking finish in the ninth.
 
The Yeomen will be back in action tomorrow against Lewis & Clark in a traditional doubleheader with both games being contested as seven-inning affairs. First pitch of the lid-lifter is set for 10 a.m. PDT.
