PRINCETON, N.J. – Dartmouth and Princeton concluded Saturday's suspended game and played the regular scheduled series finale Sunday.

Despite going ahead in the 14^th inning, the Tigers were able to load the bases and score two runs in the suspended game and allow only one Big Green run in the third game to sweep the Big Green.

Game 2 of Saturday's Doubleheader: Princeton 7, Dartmouth 6 (14 inn.)
Nine innings was not enough to determine a winner in game two as the teams needed 14 innings to crown Princeton the winner of the middle game of the series.

The Big Green wasted no time generating offense in game one, opening a 1-0 lead in the first inning. Taer Rodriguez continued to swing the bat, reaching on a single before scoring on a Jackson Hower single.

Princeton was just as eager to create offense, scoring two runs in the bottom half of the inning, taking a 2-1 lead on two hits and two walks.

Neither team was able to push any runs across in the second inning as Big Green starter Nate Isler retired the Tigers in order.

Dartmouth hit back-to-back singles in the third inning, putting two runners on with no outs. Ethan Brown stole third base before tying the game on a Zackarie Casebonne single. Another stolen base put Hower on third for Chris Miller to collect his second RBI of the day, giving the Big Green a 3-2 lead.

The Tigers scored three runs of their own in the fourth inning to retake the lead, making it a 5-3 game headed into the second half of the game.

The game remained in favor of Princeton for the next two innings. A.J. DeMastrie led off the seventh inning with a walk, followed by an Ethan Brown single. DeMastrie made his way to third on a fly out, coming around to score on a wild pitch. Casebonne knocked another hit, this time a double to center field, driving in Brown and tying the game at five runs apiece.

Both the Tigers and Big Green had a few base runners on over the next few innings but were not able to bring anyone around to score, sending the game to extra innings.

Each team went in order in the tenth inning, giving Dartmouth a chance to take the lead in the eleventh. A single, error, and intentional walk loaded the bases for the Big Green with two outs, but they were unable to bring the go-ahead run home from third.

Nate Isler got his fourth start of the year, allowing five runs on six hits in five innings of work. Isler walked three batters and fanned six, both a season and career high for strikeouts in a single game for Isler.

Kyle Klaric-Schell also made his fourth relief appearance of the season, surrendering only two hits in 2.2 innings.

Danny Will took over for Klaric-Schell in eighth inning, collecting the final out before throwing three more scoreless innings. Will allowed only one hit, walked one, and struck out one.

In the top of the 12^th, the game was suspended due to darkness and resumed Sunday. Bryce Loeger resumed the game for the Big Green. Despite having command issues early, Loeger got out of multiple jams, including the bases loaded with Tigers in the twelfth inning.

With the game still tied at five in the 14^th inning, Chris Miller gave the Big Green hope, knocking the first home run of his collegiate career to left field, putting Dartmouth up 6-5.

The Tigers played small ball in their half of the 14^th, loading the bases on two infield singles and an error. A two-run single only one batter later earned the victory for Princeton as they defeated Dartmouth, 7-6.

Sunday's Game 3: Princeton 8, Dartmouth 1
Following the conclusion of the suspended game, Dartmouth and Princeton retook the field to wrap the regular season series between the two teams. The Tigers were dominant, allowing only 6 Big Green hits to defeat Dartmouth, 8-1.

The Tigers opened a 2-0 lead in the second inning thanks to a triple, two walks, and a sacrifice fly. They added three runs in the fourth inning thanks to two Big Green errors, making it a 5-0 game headed into the fifth inning.

Princeton scored two more runs in its next plate appearances, opening a seven-run lead over the Big Green.

The Tigers added one more run in the seventh inning, making it a 8-0 game.

Dartmouth was able to push one run across in the ninth to avoid the shutout. Pinch hitter Stefan Di Corrado led off the inning with a single before advancing to second on a Jackson Hower single.

A wild pitch sent Di Corrado to third before coming home to score on a Chris Miller sacrifice fly, his second well hit ball of the day. Despite the one run, Dartmouth was unable to bring any more runners home, falling to the Tigers, 8-1.

After wrapping up the suspended game on the mound, Bryce Loeger started the series finale between Dartmouth and Princeton. He allowed two runs on one hit in two innings. Loeger also walked two and struck out one.

Trey Sejnoha made his third relief appearance of the season, throwing two innings. He gave up four runs, two earned on two hits and five walks. Sejnoha also fanned four.

Andrew Lombana and Matt Carey combined for the final 3.2 innings of work. Lombana allowed one run on three hits and two walks, adding three strikeouts. Carey was the only Big Green pitcher to throw a scoreless outing, allowing only one walk.

The Big Green will return to action next weekend, welcoming the Penn Quakers to Red Rolfe Field at Biondi Park for Dartmouth's first home games of the season. The Big Green and Quakers will play a doubleheader Saturday with game one beginning at 11:30 a.m., and a single game on Sunday at noon.
