#25 St. John's Posts Big Inning In 16-6 Win Over Alvernia

Ft. Myers, Fla. (Mar. 6, 2020) - #25 St. John's University (7-1) scored the final 13 runs of the game in a 16-6 win over Alvernia University (7-5) Friday morning in non-conference baseball action at The Player Development Complex.

Alvernia jumped out to a big lead early scoring five times in the top of the second inning.  Brandon Smith delivered a two-run single in the inning.

St. John's answered with two runs in the bottom of the inning and a run in the third. After Alvernia scored a run in the top of the fourth for a 6-3 lead, St. John's scored three in the bottom to tie it, then blew the game open with nine runs in the bottom of the sixth.  Eleven of the first 12 batters reached base in the inning that included nine base hits and three walks.

Alvernia had single baserunners in the seventh and eighth innings, but couldn't mount a rally.

The Golden Wolves return home from spring break over the weekend and open the home schedule against TCNJ on Tuesday.
