With the score tied 2-2 in the bottom of the ninth, center fielder Chris Alleyne blasted a leadoff double to left field, giving No. 22 Maryland baseball a prime opportunity to win its first home game of the season
Then with one out and Alleyne on third, third baseman Nick Lorusso came up to bat with a chance to secure the Terps’ fourth straight win.
Lorusso didn’t crack under pressure with two strikes on the count, hitting the ball on a line drive straight to center field, sending Alleyne home and winning the game.
The Terps have now started 4-0 for the second time in three years and will look to continue their winning streak Friday night against Campbell after securing the 3-2 win over the Retrievers on Wednesday evening.
