Box Score ROCHESTER, N.Y. – The Ithaca College baseball team was shutout by Rochester, 2-0, on Tuesday afternoon in a non-conference game on the road. The loss snaps Ithaca's five-game winning streak and drops the Bombers to 7-8 on the season, while Rochester improves to 14-7.

The Yellowjackets scored unearned runs in the third and sixth innings, and rode the arm of Josh Shulman to a complete game shutout.

Ithaca senior Andrew Sanders also tossed a complete game in a losing effort. Sanders scattered four hits over eight innings and struck out three batters with one walk. He is now 2-3 on the season with a 0.97 earned run average.

The Bombers notched nine hits in the game, but were unable to record one with runners in scoring position.

In the top of the seventh, Ithaca had runners on second and third with one out after junior Stephen Yanchus reached on a single and senior Matt Connolly found his way on via catcher's inference. A sacrifice bunt moved both runners up, but a fielder's choice at home retired Yanchus, and the next batter popped out.

The Bombers found themselves in a similar situation in the eighth - junior Zach Cole walked and sophomore Trevor Thompson singled with one out. Freshman Domenic Boresta pinch ran for Cole and was thrown out at home during another fielder's choice for the second out, and an ensuing ground out ended the inning.

Thompson went 2-for-4 at the plate, as did junior Zach Pidgeon.

Ithaca will look to get back in the win column tomorrow at 4 p.m. against Brockport at Freeman Field.
