PEORIA, Ariz. – The Swarthmore College baseball team’s Spring Break trip ended in heartbreaking fashion, as a wild pitch from sophomore Zach Weiner in the bottom of the 10th inning proved to be the difference as Wesleyan rallied from a four-run eighth inning deficit to defeat the Garnet 11-10 in 10 innings on Friday afternoon from the Padres Spring Training Facility in Peoria, Arizona.
With the defeat, the Garnet finish the Arizona trip with a 3-5 record.

Swat’s loss in the second half of the doubleheader was a particularly tough defeat, as the Cardinal (5-0) rallied from down 3-1 in fifth inning of the seven inning contest, while sophomore Spencer Ross saw his potential game-tying three-run home run robbed by a spectacular catch by the Wesleyan right-fielder off the wall.
GOODYEAR, Ariz. – The unusually-chilly Arizona weather did little to cool off the smokin’ hot Garnet bats, as the Swarthmore College baseball team (3-0) scored 16 runs on 17 hits to defeat Pitt-Bradford 16-10 on Tuesday afternoon from Desert Edge High School in Goodyear.
