Five Hits From Pierfy Leads Knights to Victory

The Scarlet & Grey kept the pressure on in the third as they broke the game open with five runs. In the frame, the Knights used four hits, two walks and one Albright error to garner their runs. Dylan Towey sparked the inning with an RBI single to left field, followed by a Sean Carew bases loaded walk. A Zak Thomas ground out to first base allowed Towey to race home; and a two-run Ryan Bealer single made the score 6-1 in favor of the Knights.
 
Albright pushed its lone run across in the fifth on a double to left center by Jimmie Gentry to plate Lew Meringo.
 
Arcadia wasn't done as it tacked on three more runs in the seventh and eighth innings combine. Thomas singled to bring in Pierfy and Nick Ponente drew a bases loaded walk in the seventh. In the eighth, Pierfy hit an RBI double to right field to secure the 9-1 win.
