How it Happened
The Pirates got the scoring started early, as Danny Melnick (Hamilton, N.J.) roped an RBI double into the gap in right center. The early lead would be short lived, as a home run in the bottom of the frame tied things back up at 1-1.
In the fourth, The Hall began to flex its offensive muscles and pull away. Joey Calabretti (Perkasie, Pa.) slugged the first of pair of Pirate three-run home runs to give Seton Hall a 4-1 lead. The homer was the second of the season for the freshman.
Andrew Bianco (Kings Park, N.Y.) would follow in the fifth with a three-run shot of his own, sending one over the wall in left center to extend the Pirate lead to 7-1.
North Florida would get three runs back in the sixth inning to make it a 7-4 game, but the Pirate bats went back to work in the late stages to maintain the lead. In the seventh, Zack Sylvester (Montville, N.J.) hit a solo home run to make it an 8-4 game. One inning later, Staus Pokrovsky (Pittsgrove, N.J.) helped cushion the lead with a two-run shot, the fourth of the day for Seton Hall.
Frankie Scrivanic (Tinton Falls, N.J.) added an extra insurance run in the eighth with an RBI single to right, bringing Melnick across home plate with the 11th Seton Hall tally.
Ryan Reich (Selinsgrove, Pa.) got the start on the mound for the Pirates, working the first 4.2 innings and allowing just one run. Alex Nicolosi (Stony Point, N.Y.) earned the three-inning save, allowing just one hit and striking out a pair in his outing.
The Pirates wrap up their weekend series with the Ospreys on Sunday afternoon with first pitch slated for 1 p.m.
