CSI POWERS TO EIGHTH-STRAIGHT WITH WIN OVER LEHMAN

Brian Moreno was sensational this afternoon, going 3-for-6 at the dish with 4 RBI and a pair of runs scored.
Box Score The College of Staten Island men's baseball squad used a 10-run sixth inning to break open what was a 3-0 game, to defeat Lehman College, 13-4, in a single 9-inning affair played earlier this afternoon at South Field in the Bronx, New York.  Concluding a three-game set against the CUNYAC-school, the game did not count towards the conference standings, as CSI improved to 9-6, while the Lightning fell to 4-8.

The Dolphins chipping into Lehman starter Jhon Comas Disla, stroking single runs in the second third and fourth innings.  A Bryan Moreno and Sal Todaro RBI-grounders got the job done in the early innings alongside Moreno's single in the fourth.  Meanwhile, southpaw hurler James Mardikos kept the Lightning at bay on his way to six scoreless innings.

The effort was enough to see the Dolphins into the sixth inning, where the visitors erupted for 10 runs on just five hits, aided by a Lehman error, two hit batters, four walks, and a wild pitch.  The catastrophic inning was punctuated by a trio of  two-RBI singles from Mark Glennerster, James Lewis, and Moreno.  That made the score 13-0, as CSI sent a staggering 14 men to the dish in the inning.  Ten of CSI's 13 runs in the game came unearned.

Mardikos pitched a scoreless sixth and was relieved from there, earning the win, yielding no runs on three hits, striking out seven.  Lehman roughed up reliever Anthony Collucci to the tune of four runs in the bottom of the seventh inning, but Daniel Slevin and Chris Matusiewicz pitched two scoreless innings of relief to make it a 13-4 final.

The win was CSI's 8th in a row after a 1-6 start to the season.  They have now taken 11 straight against the Lightning dating back to the 2008 season.

The Dolphins will be back in action on Wednesday, March 30, when they host the United States Merchant Marine Academy in a single game at 4:15pm.
