ITHACA, N.Y. -- The baseball team (14-13, 5-6 Empire 8) dropped St. John Fisher (25-7, 13-3 Empire 8) 9-6 in game one of Friday's doubleheader before losing the nightcap 5-0.

In the opener the Bombers battered St. John Fisher for seven runs over the first three innings to snap the Cardinals' seven-game winning streak.

The Bombers play three games at Utica this weekend -- a single game Saturday followed by a Sunday doubleheader.Senior first baseman Trevor Wolf (Lansing/Freevile) drove in runs in each of the first two innings, hitting a first-inning sacrifice fly to put the Bombers up for good then drawing a bases-loaded walk. He added a run-scoring triple in the sixth to finish his three-RBI day.

Senior center fielder Rob Zappia (Greece Athena/Rochester) had three of Ithaca's 11 hits, including a double, with sophomore sophomore designated hitter Mike Rosenbaum (Fayetteville-Manlius/Fayetteville) and third baseman David Ahonen (Victor/Farmington) collecting two hits apiece. Ahonen scored three runs with Rosenbaum and Zappia both crossing the plate twice.

Sophomore Pat Lemmo (Westhill/Syracuse) earned the win, his third of the year, with four innings of four-hit relief. He struck out three and didn't walk a batter.

In game two, the Bombers were held to one baserunner over the first six innings -- a fourth-inning leadoff single by Zappia -- before rallying to load the bases in the bottom of the seventh inning. Ahonen and Wolf singled beofre junior left fielder Teagen Barresi (Lansing/Lansing) was hit by a pitch to bring the tying run to the on-deck circle before the Cardinals turned a ground ball in the hole into a forceout that barely beat Ithaca's runner to the bag to end the game.
