Box Score ALBANY – The College of Saint Rose erased an early deficit with some timely hitting and solid pitching as the Golden Knights recorded a 4-3 non-conference win over the Concordia Clippers.

Trailing 3-0, the Golden Knights would get on the board in the fourth inning as junior designated hitter Caleb Gleason was hit by a pitch to lead off the frame. Two batters later, sophomore left fielder Scott Hladik walked to put runners on first and second. Sophomore third basemanb Jevonte Osterhout singled to center to score Gleason to cut the lead to 3-1. After a flyout recorded the second out of the inning, freshman shortstop Ryan Hooker lined a single to center to score Marshall. On the play the Concordia centerfielder overthrew third base, sailing the ball into the Saint Rose dugout to advance Osterhout to home and tie the game at 3-3.

The next inning, the Golden Knights (10-18) would strike again as with two outs Gleason walked and subsequently moved up to second on a wild pitch. After working the count to 3-2, Hladik drove an inside fastball down the leftfield line for a double, plating Gleason for a 4-3 Saint Rose advantage

The runs proved to be all that the Golden Knights would need as after a rough start to the game, freshman right-hander Chris Gould settled in, eventually retiring 10 of the final 12 batters he faced. Overall, Gould  went six innings allowing six hits and two earned runs while walking only one. Senior right-hander Alex Ferenti tossed a scoreless seventh and eighth inning for Saint Rose and sophomore righty Mack Naughton recorded a 1-2-3 ninth inning for his second save.

Concordia (6-26) got onto the board in the top of the first inning with a pair of runs coming on an RBI single by junior designated hitter Luis Gonzalez and a double to deep centerfield by senior third baseman Chris Rutigliano to go up 2-0. The Clippers would make it 3-0 in the third as after a leadoff single by senior center fielder Jason Berrios, Gould committed a throwing error on a pickoff attempt, advancing Berrios to third.
