Game One
Keiser Highlights

• Taylor Blatch threw his first complete game of the season, striking out five while limiting the Bees to seven hits. The transfer senior is now 4-2 on the year.
• Seven Keiser hitters recorded a hit in the opening game with middle infielders, CJ Fitzpatrick and Jonathan Fernandez having two hits apiece.
• Carlos Lopez drove in four runs with three coming off his home run in the first inning.

 
Turning Point
A three-run shot to left field by Lopez in the opening inning put the Seahawks out in front 3-1, a lead they wouldn't relinquish. The senior has now recorded a long ball in each of the last three games while raising his total to six on the year.

How it Happened

• Saint Ambrose plated an unearned run in the first before the Seahawks answered with three in the bottom half.
• Justin Lara and Fitzpatrick drew walks before Lopez connected with a three-run shot over the left field fence to lead 3-1.
• The Seahawks added a run in the second on an RBI single to center field by Peter Crocitto, plating Fernandez, who led off with a single up the middle, making it 4-1.
• The Bees got a run back in the fourth on an RBI single through the right side but Keiser came right back with two runs in the bottom half.
• A passed ball allowed Fernandez to cross the plate and an RBI fielder's choice by Lopez plated the final run of the game.

 
 
Game Two
Keiser Highlights

• The Seahawks produced 12 hits with Marco Rivera racking up three hits and five runs batted in.
• Karsten Sherman, Anfernee Torruella, and Tivon Faneyte all recorded multiple hits in the second game.
• Victor Hughes notched his first win a Seahawks uniform, throwing six innings with five punch outs.

 
Turning Point
It was the long ball again that proved to be the difference as Keiser connected on a solo shot in the second and a two-run bomb in the fourth. 

How it Happened

• Rivera delivered the game-opening run in the second with a leadoff solo homer to left. A second run came across on an RBI groundout to second by Carlos Pena and a wild pitch capped the scoring with KU in front, 3-0.
• The first two Seahawks were retired in the fourth, before Torruella singled up the middle and scored on a two-run homer to left by Faneyte, making it 5-0.
• In the fifth, Keiser loaded the bases with one-out when Rivera cleared the bases with a double to center, pushing the lead to 8-0.
• Torruella made it a nine-run game with a single to left center, and Pena tacked on two more runs with a double to center, making it 11-0.
• A Keiser error allowed two runs to score in the sixth but KU got both runs back in the bottom half on a two-out RBI single from Rivera and an RBI triple to center by Sherman, winning 13-2.
