Baseball Wins Two CACC Games Versus Bridgeport

PHILADELPHIA – The Thomas Jefferson University baseball team (16-13, 5-3 CACC) used its offense in the opener and its pitching in the nightcap to sweep a CACC doubleheader versus Bridgeport (7-22, 3-9 CACC) on Wednesday.
 
GAME ONE – W, 14-4
The Rams built a 5-0 lead with three runs in the first and two in the second. Chris McLean smacked an RBI double and later scored on an error. Diego Santiago drove in a run with a base hit while Jay Kalieta and Joe Cencetti each knocked in a run with a triple and single respectively.
 
The Purple Knights got on the board in the fourth with a two-run homer. Kalieta added a long ball of his own, bashing a solo shot in the bottom of the fourth to make it 6-2. Jefferson broke it open with eight runs in the fifth. McLean led off with a home run for the first of seven hits in the frame. The Rams sent 12 hitters to the plate during the barrage. Bridgeport's final two runs came in the seventh.
