Baseball Closes Out Weekend Trip with Loss to Richmond

Leopards return to action on Wednesday against Villanova

RICHMOND, Va. – The Lafayette College baseball team fell in its final game of the weekend to the University of Richmond, 25-4.   
 
The Leopards were led by sophomore Justin Grech who went 3-for-5 with a double and a triple, freshman Carter Dorighi who went 2-for-4 with a double, and junior Seif Ingram who went 2-for-4 for a home run.
 
Lafayette (2-9, 0-0 PL) threatened to get on the board first in the bottom of the second after a single by freshman Michael Zarrillo and a double by Dorighi with two outs, put runners in scoring position for Ingram. Ingram was unable to bring the runners home as he struck out to end the inning and leave the two runners stranded.
 
Richmond (7-3, 0-0 A10) then exploded for 23 runs over the next six innings.
 
The Leopards were able to get a run across the plate in the top of the eighth. Grech led off the inning with a triple to center field and then freshman Easton Brenner drew a walk to put runners on first and third.
 
Brenner than advanced to second on a wild pitch setting up runners on second and third for Ciuffreda who grounded out to the Spider's shortstop, but it was enough for Grech to come home and score the Leopards' first run of the game.
 
The Spiders added two more runs in the bottom of the eighth to put the score at 25-1.
 
The Lafayette Nine added three more runs in the top of the ninth. Junior Patrick Vandenbergh started off the inning with a single down the right field line and then two batters later, Dorighi singled to right field to put runners on first and second for Ingram.
 
Ingram hit his first home run of the season over the right center wall to score three runs. Grech tried to keep the Leopards' offense moving as he doubled down the left field line but Brenner struck out swinging to end the game and give the Spiders a 25-4 victory Sunday afternoon.
 
Lafayette returns to the field on Wednesday as the Leopards are set for a 3 p.m. game with Villanova in Plymouth Meeting, Pa. The Leopards are currently undefeated in Plymouth Meeting as they defeated Rider there earlier this season, 11-2.
