The Seton Hall baseball team either lead or were tied for 26 out of the 27 outs on Saturday, in its second game of the Kissimmee Irish Classic in Kissimmee, Fla. Tournament hosts Notre Dame did not go away though, and a two-run ninth inning from the Fighting Irish gave Seton Hall a 9-8 loss.
Seton Hall’s offensive eruption began very early in the game, as the Pirates got ahead of Notre Dame with four runs in the first two innings. In the first frame, the Pirates manufactured a run with small ball, as Mike Alescio walked, stole a base, and later scored on a RBI single by Sebastiano Santorelli.
