Baker homers while Goan has a multi-hit game
Â
The Blue Hens fell behind as the Terrapins plated at least one run in each of the first three innings before answering with a crooked number of their own in the fourth.
Â
Senior Vinny Vaccone drew a lead-off walk and stole second, coming around to score before freshman Aidan Riley singled to center to score both junior Jordan Hutchins and senior Jack Goan.
Â
Junior Winston Allen kept the hot-hitting Maryland team at bay for two innings before running out of gas. He allowed his first earned run of the season in the game and worked 2.2 innings with just one earned and two strikeouts.
Â
Sophomore Joseph Carpenter roped a double in the fifth inning to score graduate student Kyle Baker, part of a two RBI night.
Â
Goan had a 2-for-4 day with a run while graduate Baker was 1-for-4 with a home run in the seventh inning.
Â
Maryland had a season-high 15 hits on the night.
Â
A three-game series with Rider looms for the Blue Hens with first pitch slated for 3 p.m. Friday at Bob Hannah Stadium followed by 1 p.m. starts the next two. Â
