The Mercy College baseball team let a game slip away on
Friday
afternoon, losing to C.W. Post, 13-2, in a game played at Mercy
College. The Pioneers held a tenuous 1-0 lead after five innings,
then scored four runs in the sixth, two in the eighth, and six more
in the ninth.
Mercy starter Steve Merslich (Flushing,
N.Y./Francis Lewis) pitched himself out of trouble several times in
his five innings of work. He scattered just two hits, but walked
four in taking the loss.
The Mavericks scored single runs in the seventh and eighth
innings. Mike Grassano (Valley Stream,
N.Y./Valley Stream South) and Vinny Tesoriero (Glen Head, N.Y./North
Shore) had the RBI. Grassano had two hits on the day, as did Justin Muscarella (Plainedge,
N.Y./Island Trees).
The series continues with a doubleheader in Dobbs Ferry on
Saturday. First pitch takes place at noon.
