Stony Brook split their double header today with Fordham in a set of games that was closed to the public. They won the first game 6-1 behind Tyler Honahan, but were defeated 9-6 in the night cap.
In the first game, Honahan received the victory by throwing six strong innings, allowing only three hits, walking one, allowing one ER and striking out five.
Fordham got out to an early 1-0 in the third inning on a triple by Ryan McNally and an RBI single by Mark Donadio.
The Sea Wolves responded promptly with three runs of their own in the bottom of the inning. Robert Chaverria drove in two with a single and it was followed by Cole Peragine’s run-scoring hit.
That was all Honahan would need. The southpaw was dominant in his six innings.
Stony Brook added one in the fourth and two in the eighth as insurance runs. Tim Knesnik came in for the nine-out save to close the door on Fordham.
The split brings the Sea Wolves’ record to 3-8. They will have the week off, before hosting Binghamton in a three-game set next weekend.
