Coming off of a 13-run performance in Friday night’s home opener against Rutgers, Maryland baseball looked to carry that offensive momentum into Saturday’s doubleheader.
A four-hit performance in game one halted that momentum in its tracks, as Rutgers’ bullpen held the Terps down. The Scarlet Knight offense also forced a short outing from Sean Fisher in a losing effort in Saturday’s first contest.
Maryland scored first in game two, but a resilient and dangerous Rutgers lineup took advantage of a rough outing from pitcher Connor Staine to take a mid-game advantage. The Terps chipped away in the mid and late innings but were unable to come away with a come-from-behind win.
