Engineers drop non-league contest to Ephs

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. - Five Williams College ptichers combined to throw a 6-hit shut out RPI Wednesday afternoon at Bobby Coombs Field. The Ephs improved to 10-17 with the victory while the Engineers slip to 10-20 on the season.

Williams scored unearned runs in the first and second innings and added two more in the third to build an early four-run lead. 

In the first, David Rosas was hit by a pitch leading off and advanced to third on consecutive groundouts. He scored the Ephs' first run when Kellen Hatheway's grounder to first was misplayed into an error. 

Adam Regensburg blasted a one-out double to left-center field in the second and advanced to third on a groundout. He scored when David Kwan reached on an two-out throwing error by the second baseman. 

In the Ephs' third, Jackson Parese, Doug Schaffer and Hatheway had consecutive singles to load the bases with one out. Jack Cloud drew a bases-loaded walk to force home Parese and Nathan Michalski scored Schaffer with a sacrifice fly to center on a extremely well hit ball. 

Eph hurlers were keeping RPI off the board. Senior Alex Beschloss started and tossed the first four frames. His toughest inning was the first when a hit batsman and two Eph errors loaded the bases with one out. However, Kwan snared Ethann Meister's line drive at first and doubled off a runner to end the threat. 

Beschloss ended up allowing three hits. He did not walk a batter and struck out three. Will O'Brienfollowed and went 2 1/3 innings, allowing just one hit but walking two and striking out no one. He was lifted with a runner on first and one out in the seventh. Michael Cassidy came on and cleaned up the inning, inducing a pop up and a groundout to end the frame. 

Tom Benz pitched a scoreless eighth, walking one batter, and senior Arnie Capute hurled the ninth, allowing two hits but no runs.

O'Brien earned the win, evening his record at 2-2. Aaron Kalish took the loss for RPI. J.T. Sawyer was 2 for 3 for the Engineers.

RPI is back in action on Saturday, when it opens a four-game, home-and-home series with Vassar at Robison Field (1pm). The Ephs are home to Hamilton on Friday (4pm).
