The Saints improved to 5-2 (1-0 in the Liberty League) while the Dutchmen fell to 1-3 overall and 0-1 in the league. The second game of the twinbill was rained out in the top of the fifth, with St. Lawrence leading 8-3, and Union the home team. It will be resumed Friday at 9 a.m., prior to the regularly scheduled league doubleheader between the two teams.
St. Lawrence had 11 hits for the game. Union's Josh McKelligan (Canton, MA/Salisbury), who was the starter in the nightcap, had the lone hit, a single for Union in the opener.
Union junior Eric Giovannone (New Hartford, CT/New Hartford) suffered the loss for the Dutchmen. The starter gave up three earned runs in six innings, did not walk a batter and struck out five.
