tUESPAY. APRIL 19. 1995 Lions Notch 2nd Diamond Win 4-3 Victory Brings Slate To 2-1; Drapcho Is Victor Tightly pressed for base hits in the second of two weekend contests at Lafayette Saturday, the Penn State baseball team capitalized on faulty pitching to defeat what was probably one of the strongest teams it will have to face all season, 4-3. The win brought the Lions' season mark to 2-1. Dick Fitzgerald, Lafayette's southpaw hurler, pitched hitless ball for 7 1 / 4 innings, but in the sixth stanza he allowed two Penn State scores on a hit batsman, three walks, and a balk. Ed Drapcho, on the mound for the Nittanies, gave up six safeties while striking out seven and walking one to earn his second win in as many outings. Lions Score in Bth Coach Charlie Gelbert's Maroon performers scored first with two runs in the third, with the Nit tanies backing up their sixth inn ing pair with one tally in the to of the eighth. The Maroon fol lowed with one run in the bottom of the seventh, but the Lions earned one more in their half of the ninth to end the scoring par ade. Over 2000 fans saw Fitzgerald fan ten_ Lion batters in '7% inn ings, walking five. Tom Maurer took the mound in favor of Fitz gerald in the eighth, whiffed three and walked two. Although they were scattered enough to prevent any Lafayette scores, the Nittanies committed five errors compared to two for the losers. One Hit to Outfield .4 , The Lions' thi r d run came when Drapcho popped out, Russo single d ! and Weidenhammer reached first on an infield hit. Russo's only hit was also the only one to get out of the infield dur ing the entire game. With Russo and Weidenhammer occupying first and second, Ken nedy loaded the bases on an er ror, and Saunders, pinch hitting for Malley, walked to force in a run. The Penn State final run came after Wally Mrasz walked, ad vanced on an infield hit by Drap cho, and scored on a wild throw. Drapcho set the losers down in order in their half of the ninth. The Lions take to the road again this weekend, facing West Virginia Friday and Saturday.
