WAGE SIX Lion Win Ended by Two rights don't make up for a wrong and Penn State's baseball team found this to \ be the sad truth Saturday at Beaver Field. The Lions paved the way for Colgate's 7-5 win with four unearned runs, although the Lions tried to make up for their - miscues with brilliant fielding in the late innings'. The loss ended Penn State's six-game winning skein and left the Lions with a 9-4 slate with three games still on tap. Tomorrow Coach Joe Bedenk will send his diamond squad against Quaker City. Garland Ginger ich went to the mound for the Blue and White and was staked to a 4-0 lead in the first—a lead which lasted only until leftfielder Rex Bradley let Bob Berry's low liner slither away for a four base error. This blow ended Ging erich's scoreless inning streak at 22% frames. The loss was his first after three wins. Penn State outhit the Red Raid ers, nine to six, but committed five errors to two for Colgate. Despite these miscues the T i.r` managed to hang on to a 5-5 tie going into the ninth. Charlie Russo led off the Lions' half of the first with a single. He moved to second on a sacrifice and advanced to thi r d with a beautiful slide that took third sacker Berry out the play which started when Ron Weidenhammer hit a long fly to center. George Ettenger followed with a single to left and Pat Kennedy with a triple to center, puting the Lions in front, 2-0. Successive walks to Hubie Kline and Skip Gerdes and a ground single to left by Bradley rounded out the scoring. , In the third the Lions scored on Kennedy's booming home run to deep center. It was the big first sacker's initial circuit clout Colgate knotted the score with two funs in the fourth and , two more in the fifth on just three hits. Three errors by the Lions in these two frames aided the Red Raiders' cause. Sensational catches by Brad ley and Gerdes in the ninth pre vented Colgate from scoring more than twice. Len Kraus started that fateful inning with a single to right which Pete Cherish let skip past him, permitting Kraus to move up to second. Bradley then carne up with a fine running catch in shott left. Ted Carangelo's single put Kraus on thi r d. Hal Horan smashed what looked like a home run, but Gerdes speared the ball with a last-second diving, rolling catch. Gerdes flipped the ball to Bradley, but the relay was not in time to keep the runners from moving, up. A single by Frank Nardulli ended the scoring.
