Baseball Shut Down by Fisher

Baseball Shut Down by Fisher

LYNN, Mass. - The Worcester State University baseball team had no answer for Fisher College in the final game of a five-game series on Friday afternoon, as the Falcons took care of the Lancers by a final score of 22-4 in non-conference action at Fraser Field.

With the loss, Worcester State drops to 8-3 overall on the season.

Worcester State got the offense started on the day, putting a pair on the scoreboard in the top of the first inning to take an early advantage. Senior Pat Galvin (Shrewsbury, Mass.) and junior Sean Devin (Lynn, Mass.) delivered the RBIs for the Lancers in the frame. 

The Lancers added another in the top of the second to extend their lead to 3-0 on an RBI double from junior Joe Rogato (Methuen, Mass.), before Fisher opened the floodgates. The Falcons scored three in the bottom of the inning to tie the score, but added eight in the bottom of the third to take a commanding 11-3 lead through three.

Sophomore Zack Roberts (Northbridge, Mass.) got one run back for Worcester State in the top of the fourth with an RBI single, but that would cap the Lancer offense for the afternoon. Fisher scored three in the fifth inning and four in the sixth and seventh innings to give the game its final score of 22-4.

Worcester State will be back in action on Friday for a key MASCAC doubleheader at Westfield State. First pitch in game one of the doubleheader is set for 1 p.m. in Westfield.
