Maryland played seven innings of baseball on Saturday, and even though severe weather meant the last two had to be played on Sunday, the Terps held on for a crucial win in game two of their series against Purdue.
On Saturday, costly early errors gave the Boilermakers two extra runs — the difference heading into the fourth inning.
But in the bottom half of the frame, junior second baseman Kevin Keister and senior catcher Luke Shliger both walked, setting up the always-dangerous senior third baseman Nick Lorusso in a perfect spot. Lorusso launched the first pitch of his at-bat over the batter’s eye in center field to give Maryland a one-run lead.
