The Rattler baseball team won a slugfest at Delaware State yesterday escaping Dover with a 14-13 victory. The win gave the Rattlers a 19-20 overall record ( 11-7 MEAC). The make-up contest from an April 12 rain-out marked the MEAC regular season finale for the Hornets. The win helped the Rattler retain sole possession of the third place spot, while the loss drops DSU to the fourth place in the MEAC standings. The Hornets and Rattlers are expected to meet in the fist round of the upcoming MEAC Tournament in Norfolk, Va. later this month.
Monday’s contest featured 34 hits, including six home runs. Six players had at least two hits, while five drove in at least two runs for the Rattlers.
