Baseball Set for Two Fall Games
Sep 25 | Baseball
PISCATAWAY, N.J. – Rutgers baseball will play two games at Bainton Field this fall, Oct. 13 versus Rowan College at Gloucester County and Oct. 14 against Brookdale Community College. Both games start at noon and are open to the public.
The Scarlet Knights are in the midst of fall practice after improving by six wins in 2018. RU had a streak of six-straight series wins, winning seven-of-eight weekends during a stretch into mid-April. That included a 6-1 spring break trip in Florida that propelled the team to 12 victories in March, the most since 2001, and later to as high as seven games over .500 for the first time since 2012. The pitching staff lowered its season ERA from 6.11 to 4.82 and the gloves led the Big Ten with 50 double plays. At the plate, the Scarlet Knights picked up 111 RBIs with two outs for over two per game.
Registration is still open for the Oct. 8 golf outing at Forsgate Country Club in Monroe Township. All net proceeds will be directed 100% to the Rutgers baseball program.
In addition, all Scarlet Knights are invited to take part in the Alumni Game versus the current team on Oct. 19. The event begins at 11 a.m. with batting practice and Glen Gardner will serve as the coach for the alumni team. Alumni interested in participating should contact director of player development Peter Barron via email (pbarron@scarletknights.com). The weekend of Oct. 19 is also Homecoming on campus. Doug Alongi, an All-America selection in 1993, will be inducted into the Rutgers Hall of Fame and honored during the football game versus Northwestern.
