The River Hawks played the role of rude host in a 14-2 loss for the baseball team.
LOWELL, Mass. — UMass Lowell scored 14 unanswered runs to defeat visiting Dartmouth on Tuesday afternoon at LeLacheur Park by a final of 14-2. Gery Siracusa was 2-for-5 with a home run and four RBIs to help the River Hawks (9-16) post their fourth win in the last six games.
The Big Green (10-12) briefly held the lead in the top of the first thanks to a two-out single by Kade Kretzschmar, plating Justin Murray who had doubled.
That 1-0 lead did not last long as the first three UMass Lowell batters reached base and each one came around to score. Three consecutive singles to start the River Hawk second brought around another run before Brandon Fish hit an RBI single and Cedric Rose drove in two more with another single for a 7-1 advantage.
After Robert Gallagher added a run in the fourth by getting hit by a pitch, stealing second and third and scoring on a wild pitch, UMass Lowell put the game out of reach in the fifth with five more runs, capped by Siracusa's three-run blast, his fifth of the season.
The River Hawks tacked on a run in the eighth on a pinch-hit solo shot off the bat of Matt DeBenedetto, his first, which junior James House matched in the top of the ninth, his second round-tripper of the season.
Brendan Holland (2-1) earned the victory by pitching five innings and allowing one run on four hits and a pair of walks while striking out one. Four relievers each threw an inning and surrendered just two hits and the final run to go with six strikeouts.
Eight pitchers each threw one inning for Dartmouth with Tyler Cortland (0-3) taking the loss for yielding the three runs in the first.
Ten difference River Hawks had at least one of the team's 12 hits, with Jacob Humphrey joining Siracusa with two safeties.
Kretzschmar had two of the Big Green's six knocks.
Dartmouth next plays a three-game Ivy League series at Yale (13-8, 4-2 Ivy) with Saturday's doubleheader starting at 11:30 a.m. and Sunday's finale beginning at noon. All three games will be streamed live on ESPN+.
Notes: UMass Lowell has won the last four games in the series, but this is the first time the home team has won in the six meetings since 2015.
