Baseball's Season Closes with Liberty League Crossover Defeat Against Ithaca

Brewers fall 9-1 in the resumption of game two from yesterday

Ithaca, NY - The Vassar College Baseball team's season came to a close in the Liberty League Crossover Series on Saturday afternoon as the Brewers suffered a 9-1 loss to Ithaca in the resumption of Friday's game two of the series on Saturday afternoon.

  • Ithaca extended the lead to 2-0 in the third following a RBI single from Ethan Daddabbo with one out but first year Zach Berner limited the damage after inducing a pop out and a strikeout to keep the deficit at two.
  • Vassar cut the lead to 2-1 in the fifth as senior Birch Herring-Jackson was hit by pitch and came around to score on a Bombers error.
  • Ithaca pushed the lead back to two runs in the bottom half of the fifth on another RBI single from Daddabbo and the game was suspended following the fifth inning.
