Baseball Defeated by Fordham, 6-4
May 1, 2009
KINGSTON, R.I. - The Rhode Island baseball team dropped a 6-4 decision to Fordham on Friday afternoon at Bill Beck Field. Juniors Oliver Palmer (North Kingstown, R.I.) and Zoey Angulo (Miami, Fla.) both homered in the loss. Palmer gave URI an early one-run lead with a solo shot in the bottom of the first inning but Fordham came back and evened things up at one apiece in the top of the second Rhody then sent three across the plate in the bottom of the inning to take a 4-1 lead. Freshman Milan Adams (Exeter, R.I.) doubled to right field to start a two-out rally which Angulo continued when he launched a shot over the right field fence. Palmer was then walked before taking second on a base hit by senior Dan Rhault (Lincoln, R.I.) and crossing the plate on sophomore Tom Coulombe's (Lincoln, R.I.) single through the right side. However, Rhody would get just three hits the rest of the way as Fordham plated five unanswered runs to take the win. Ryan McCrann finished the day with two home runs and four RBI for the visiting Rams while Mike Mobbs batted in Fordham's remaining two runs. Redshirt junior Tim Boyce (Swansea, Mass.) was charged with the loss after allowing seven hits and six runs (five earned) over five innings of work. J.P. Mack went nine innings for Fordham to get the win. With the loss, URI drops to 30-15-1 (15-3) while Fordham improves to 16-27 (10-9). The two teams will return to Bill Beck Field for Game Two of the three-game series, Saturday at 1 p.m.
