Two runs, three hours apart, put the Pirates on the brink of elimination

For the fourth straight season, the Seton Hall baseball team will face elimination in the second game of the Big East Tournament, following a 13-inning, 2-1 defeat to Butler, on Thursday night in Mason, Ohio.

The fans in attendance at Prasco Park had free baseball from the start, as the tournament host venue was not charging fees for admission. However, the two teams still managed to give spectators more than was originally promised, as two pitchers from each side: Shane McCarthy and Andrew Politi from Seton Hall, and Ryan Pepiot and Josh Walker from Butler, managed to carry the game a full 12 innings.
