Maryland baseball needed a bounce-back game after a winless weekend, and it hoped to break its cold spell in College Park on Tuesday against UMBC.
The Retrievers fought all evening, with a two-run double tying the game in the top of the eighth inning. In the bottom half of the inning, the Terps took the lead on a double by Nick Lorusso, and were able to score another and load the bases with several walks. With a two-run lead, Matt Woods hit a perfectly-placed ball down the right-field line, clearing the bases to break the game open.
That monster, six-run eighth inning was enough to give the Terps a 12-6 win and snap their three-game losing streak.
