The Adelphi Panthers might as well call it ‘win day’ when Jonathon Mulford takes the hill. He threw another 7.2 dominant innings today against New Haven in their 7-3 win to improve to 4-0 on the season. When anyone else takes the hill the Panthers are 6-11.
The offense got going in the first inning on a two-run double by the resurgent Donato Signore. That was followed up by Alex Zykoff‘s RBI single to extend the lead to 3-0.
The Panthers opened up the game in the next inning on a three-run home run by senior Nick ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ Zito. Eric Hassell‘s RBI double extended the lead to 7-0.
That was plenty for the Panther’s ace. He allowed five hits, walked three and struck out seven.
Ricky Van Allen and Mike Cranston combined to throw 1.1 scoreless innings and seal the deal for the Panthers.
The Chargers took game two 7-1. East Islip grad David Palmer threw five strong innings, allowing one ER for his first victory of the season.
He was backed by an offensive attack led by Jack Zagaja’s two-run HR, who is becoming quite the Panther killer.
The Panthers compiled only five hits, with no player recording two hits. TJ Santiago suffered his third loss of the season.
Today will feature another twinbill for the Panthers, who are in New Hampshire taking on Saint Anselm College.
