Giants knock out 15 hits in win over Pacers

Scranton, PA (4-15-11) - Keystone College improved to 8-1 in Colonial States Athletic Conference baseball action and 15-8 overall with a 12-1 win over host Marywood University 

Marywood dropped their seventh seventh straight with the loss and fell to 12-13, 5-7 CSAC.  The Giants broke open a 3-1 game with a four-run fifth and got homers from Andrew Siano and Will Delgado in the win.

Up 1-0 after one, Keystone added two more in the third on a two-run shot to left center from Siano.  Marywood responded in the bottom half of the inning, using an error and passed ball to get a runner in scoring position. 

Keystone broke open the game in the fifth.  Up 3-1, Siano walked and stole second and would score on a Roberto Santana single to center.  Santana would move to third on a wild pitch and would then cross the plate when Andy Vega singled to left.  Then, with the bases loaded, a Gabe Torres double to center plated two runs to put the Giants up 7-1.

Keystone would add one more in the seventh when Kumar Piar tripled to center to score Torres and put four more on the board in the eighth highlighted with Delgado's homer.

Jeff Frost (4-3) got the win after allowing one run on seven hits over seven innings of work. Frost struck out ten on the day.  Two Giant pitchers combined for one-hit relief over the final two innings.

Torres finished the day 4-for-5 for the Giants.

Keystone and the Pacers will face off again tomorrow in La Plume with a doubleheader. Due to expected inclement weather later in the day, the opening game will start at 11:00 am.
