Trystan Sarcone's seven shutout innings went for naught in the nightcap
HANOVER, N.H. — Dartmouth was one out away from ending its 18-game skid in the second game of a doubleheader with Yale on Saturday, but the Bulldogs pushed an unearned run across then scored five times in the 10th to complete a twinbill sweep of the Big Green at Red Rolfe Field at Biondi Park, 7-2. In the opener, the Bulldogs (12-16, 6-5 Ivy) broke open a tight game with an 11-run ninth to defeat Dartmouth (1-26, 0-11 Ivy), 16-3.
Left-hander Trystan Sarcone had his best start of the season in the nightcap, putting zeroes on the board for seven innings while allowing six hits and one walk (which he immediately picked off first) to go with four strikeouts. Not a single Bulldog advanced past second base while the fifth-year senior was on the mound.
Yale starter Colton Shaw matched Sarcone for five frames before the Big Green broke the scoreless deadlock in the sixth. Senior Peter O'Toole lined a leadoff single and went to third on Jackson Hower's grounder just inside the third-base line for a double. Shaw got the first out on strikes, but senior Connor Bertsch brought home O'Toole with a grounder to short for the 1-0 lead.
Dartmouth doubled its advantage in the fifth when Elliot Krewson's shallow pop into right field with two down was dropped by the second baseman for an error, allowing Zackarie Casabonne to score from second.
Sarcone was relieved to start the eighth by junior Tyler Cortland, making his first appearance on the mound due to an injury. The first batter hit a liner to center that was caught in spectacular fashion by Tyler Robinson, but a single, a two-out walk and a base hit to center by Jake Williams made it a 2-1 game. Left-hander Danny Will came on and pumped a full-count fastball over the plate for a called third strike to end the threat.
But in the ninth, Ben Metzner roped a one-out single — his third hit of the game — then advanced to second after a strikeout when a pickoff throw was off the mark. On another full-count pitch, Alec Atkinson then chopped a two-hopper down the line at third that was fielded cleanly but thrown wide of first. Max Zajec was able to dive to keep the ball from going down the line, but Metzner never stopped running and slid across the plate with the tying run.
Yale put the game away in the 10th, scoring five times on three hits, a walk, a hit batter, three sacrifice bunts and a sacrifice fly, and Beck Milner capped the outburst with a two-run double.
Josh Richardson (2-0) earned the win for twirling two scoreless stanzas to close out the game. Eddie Albert (0-4), who pitched the 10th, suffered the loss.
It was Milner who gave Yale the lead in the first game, lining a two-out, two-run single that scored two runners who had reached on errors. A Metzner triple in the fourth gave the Bulldogs a 3-0 lead before Dartmouth got one back on a booming home run off the bat of senior Kolton Freeman in the fifth, his first of the year.
Jeff Pierantoni got that run back for Yale in the sixth with an RBI double, but was thrown out at third trying to stretch it into a triple. Tommy Martin then launched a solo blast, his second homer of the year, immediately afterward Pierantoni was gunned down, making it a 5-1 contest.
After Reid Easterly (4-2) was lifted after seven innings of three-hit ball with four walks and eight strikeouts, Dartmouth loaded the bases with one out in the eighth on three consecutive one-out walks against Mark Capell, who had issued just three walks all season in 22.2 innings. Zajec came through with a two-out, two-run single, and an error loaded the bases before Capell got the third out on a called third strike, ending the threat.
Yale made sure the Big Green would not rally in the ninth with 11 runs — six unearned and another team unearned — on just four hits, thanks to four hit batters, two walks and two errors.
Jack Metzger (0-5) went eight-plus innings for Dartmouth, allowing six runs, four earned, on nine hits and one walks while fanning four.
All nine Bulldog batters finished the opener with at least one RBI, and eight of the nine had at least one hit in the 13-hit attack. Both Milner and Davis Hanson had three RBIs as well.
The two teams will finish their three-game series on Sunday with the first pitch to be thrown at noon. The game, presented by Milton CAT, will be streamed live on ESPN+ with Wayne Young '72 and Brett Franklin calling the action, and live stats will be available on DartmouthSports.com, the official website of Dartmouth Athletics.
Note: Dartmouth has lost 19 straight games, extending its longest drought in program history.
