== Royals’ Wrap-up For Friday, April 13 ==


Baseball: GENNAOUI, TOUHEY, FOX COMBINE ON 3-HITTER AS ROYALS DOWN FDU-FLORHAM, 12-3, FRIDAY AFTERNOON AT CONNELL PARK IN OPENING GAME OF THREE-GAME SERIES; PSIHOULES DRIVES IN THREE RUNS

SCRANTON, Pa.—Pitchers John Gennaoui, J.P. Touhey and Kyle Fox combined on a three-hitter to lead The University of Scranton to a 12-3 victory over FDU-Florham in the first of a three-game Freedom Conference series Friday afternoon at Connell Park.

Gennaoui went six innings, allowed only one hit and struck out six to even his pitching record at 2-2 as the Royals improved to 8-14 overall and 3-3 in the Freedom Conference. Sophomore Chris Psihoules had two hits, including his team-leading eighth double of the season, and three RBI for Scranton, which took advantage of four errors by the Devils to score eight unearned runs. Junior Andrew Outhouse and sophomore Charles Comprelli added two hits and an RBI apiece for the Royals, who broke the game open by scoring seven runs—five unearned—in the bottom of the seventh inning.

Sophomore Joey Santillo belted a two-run home run for FDU-Florham, now 12-9 overall and 4-3 in league play, in the top of the sixth inning to forge a 3-3 tie. Scranton regained the lead for good with two runs in the bottom half of the frame without the benefit of a base-hit, as freshmen Chris Bligh and Justin Champagne came around to score after drawing a walk and being hit by a pitch, respectively.

The floodgates opened in the seventh inning after Outhouse hit a single to right-field and advanced to third on a sacrifice by senior Jason Feairheller that was misplayed by the Devils. Senior Mike Graziano and Bligh each drove in two runs with a single and Psihoules belted a two-run double to center-field during the inning. Psihoules gave Scranton a 1-0 lead with an RBI single in the first inning and the Royals took advantage of two errors by the Devils to increase their lead to 3-0 in the second.

The Devils scored an unearned run in the top of the fourth, as senior Lucas Cittone walked, stole second, advanced to third on a passed ball and scored on a balk by Gennaoui.

After the Royals took a 5-3 lead in the sixth, Touhey relieved Gennaoui and allowed only one hit—a double by freshman Matt Oliveto in the eighth inning—over the next two innings. Fox came on in the ninth and got a strikeout and a ground before allowing a single to junior Dan Bellino (Jackson, N.J./St. Rose). Fox then got another ground out to end the game.

Losing pitcher Chris Voigtsberger allowed just two hits and three earned runs in 5.1 innings.

Psihoules has now hit safely in his last nine games and his second on the team in hitting with a .385 average. Graziano leads Scranton with a .406 average.
