Delaware takes home a 2-1 win!

Two innings later, UD’s hitters would wake up as they would score two runs on one hit to grab a 2-1 edge.

Junior outfielder Andrew Amato would start the inning off by earning a walk, and then three plays later, he would steal second base.

A walk and movement base from error would follow Amato’s action, as Sophomore infielder Aiden Stewart would then step up to the plate and slap a two-out, two RBI double to give the Hens a 2-1 advantage in the top of the fourth inning.

That would be all that the offense would produce for Delaware in this game, but it would be enough because their pitching staff dominated the Dolphins batters all day.
