Skidmore drops midweek bonanza, 8-7, to Cobleskill

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – The Skidmore College baseball team erased a four-run deficit in the bottom of the seventh inning to tie the game at seven, but surrendered a single run in the ninth in an 8-7 non-league marathon loss to SUNY Cobleskill at Ferrari Field on Tuesday afternoon.
  • Skidmore (10-4) committed four errors and a run-scoring passed ball leading to five unearned runs.
  • Both teams also left 12 runners left on base. Skidmore loaded the bases in the bottom of the ninth, but Fighting Tiger closer Logan Firment got a strikeout on a full-count pitch for the first out and then a perfectly placed ground ball for a double play to end it.
  • Matthew O'Neill was 3-for-5 with a double, stolen base, and two runs scored.
  • Mac Cady reached four times on a 2-for-3 outing with a pair of walks. He drove in a pair with a stolen base and a triple.
  • Cobleskill (2-6) went 10-for-10 on stolen-base attempts. Leadoff hitter Jeffrey Gutierrez stole three. He was 1-for-4 at the plate but walked twice and scored two runs. Cobleskill drew 12 walks and got hit by three pitches.
  • Trailing 7-3 in the seventh, the first three reached for Skidmore on an O'Neill single through the right side, an EJ Stefanelli base hit through the left side, and a Jack Collins walk. Cady legged out an infield hit to score one before Jack Riva hit a sacrifice fly. Then, Quinn McDonald picked up an RBI on a ground ball in the infield to make it 7-6, and Landon Schwartzman tied it up with another sac fly.
  • In the eighth, catcher Holden Caney and reliever Tyler Holm teamed up to nail the potential go-ahead run at the plate on a ball-four offering to the backstop. Holm painted a fastball to the next hitter to get out of the jam.
  • Cobleskill was the beneficiary of another double play in the Skidmore eighth.
  • The Fighting Tigers loaded the bases with one out in the ninth when an error allowed the eventual winning run to score. Sam Dalsimer limited the damage to just a run by getting the final two guys out, including an inning-ending strikeout.
  • Both teams used eight pitchers. Zach Dines tossed two innings of shutout relief for the Thoroughbreds while working around a hit batter and a walk. Dines, Griffin Adams, and Holm held Cobleskill scoreless innings 6-though-8.
UP NEXT
Skidmore will begin a three-game series with Rensselaer Friday on the road at 3:30 p.m. The Thoroughbreds will host the Engineers at Ferrari Field on Saturday at noon.
