McIntyre's Walk-off Blast in 10th Lifts Mammoths to 9-6 win over Framingham State

AUBURNDALE, Fla.. -- Amherst College junior Ryan McIntyre hit a two-out, bottom-of-the-10th inning walk-off three-run homer Thursday, lifting the Mammoths to a 9-6 victory over Framingham State on Field 5 at the Lake Myrtle Sports Complex. 

Amherst improved to 5-2 overall and have won three straight games heading into a Friday doubleheader vs. Worcester State. The game time of the doubleheader has been moved to 2 p.m. and the site moved to Northeast Regional Park in Davenport.

GAME HIGHLIGHTS:

*  The Amherst 10th began with a Tyler McCord single. He was forced out at second by Jack Boyle's fielder's choice. Boyle went to second on a wild pitch but Jack Sampedro flew out to right for the second out. Jack McDermott was intentionally walked before another wild pitch sent the runners to second and third. McIntyre then crushed a baseball over the fence in left field for the game-winning three-run home run. 

* The Mammoths had jumped out to a 4-0 lead with four runs in the bottom of the first inning. Jack Sampedro led off with a single and went to second on Luke Padian's two-out single to center. Jack Dove then drove a ball to straightaway center that one-hopped the fence and went for an RBI-double and a 1-0 lead. Christian Fagnant followed with a majestic blast to right that cleared the fence for a three-run home run and the 4-0 lead. 

* Framingham tied the game with a four-run top of the third inning. Amherst answered with a single run in its half. With two outs and no one, Dove ripped a single through the right side of the infield. He took second on a wild pitch and scored when Fagnant ripped an RBI-single back up the middle for a 5-4 lead.

* The Mammoths added a single insurance run in the fourth. Again, they had no one on base with two outs, but McDermott singled and stole second. McIntyre then ripped a single through the left side to score McDermott and give the Mammoths a 6-4 lead. 

* It stayed that way until the ninth when the Rams tied the score on a two-run single. But that only set up McIntyre's 10th-inning heroics. 

BY THE NUMBERS:

*  Dove stayed red hot, going 2 for 3 and walking twice. Fagnant was 2 for 4 with 4 RBI, and McIntyre was 2 for 6 with 4 RBI. Charlie LaFreniere was 2 for 4.

* Tyson Luna picked up the win, his first, He pitched the final and allowed one hit while not walking a batter and striking out two. The Mammoths were picked up in a big way with first-year reliever Yoon Chae, who went 5 2/3 innings of relief and allowed six hits and two runs while walking two and striking out six.
