Two days after belting eight home runs in a doubleheader with Brown, the Bulldogs were limited to two hits in a 6-0 loss at Marist in the season finale.

The Bulldogs hit eight home runs in Saturday’s doubleheader at Brown. Yale will now try to end the season on an equally positive note. In a bit of a scheduling quirk, the Bulldogs conclude the 2013 season with a non-league opponent when they play a single game at Marist on Tuesday. The first pitch is slated for 2:30 p.m. Tue, 30 Apr 2013 04:00:00 GMT http://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-softbl/2012-13/releases/20130429lsl8ex 2013-04-30T04:00:00Z http://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-softbl/2012-13/releases/20130427n2ys9x The Yale softball team ended Ivy League play with a bang. Or to be more precise, eight bangs. The Bulldogs hit eight home runs, including three from Sarah Onorato, in splitting a doubleheader with Brown at the Erickson Athletic Complex. The Bears won the opener 9-8 before Yale cruised to a 12-2 victory in the second game.

Rumley tossed 12 scoreless innings, allowing only four hits, as the Big Green swept a doubleheader from the Bulldogs 5-0 and 8-0.

The short ceremony seemed to inspire the 2013 Bulldogs. Yale built an 8-1 lead after two innings of the second game, but Dartmouth rallied and escaped with a 10-8 victory.

The Bulldogs had just scored three runs to pull within 7-6. Despite still trailing, Yale had to feel pretty good about it chances to complete the comeback, especially with the top of the order due up in the bottom of the seventh.

That probably helped make Saturday’s record breaking day a little extra special. Onorato, a sophomore, hit her school-record 11th home run of the season, but unfortunately for the Bulldogs, it came on a day that they dropped a doubleheader to the Crimson, falling 7-4 in the first game and 4-2 in the nightcap.

Yale hit .275, scored 26 runs and belted nine home runs and got solid work in the circle, yielding only 13 earned runs in 50 innings (1.82 ERA). The Bulldogs will look to keep the momentum rolling when they begin a busy week of home games by hosting Bryant on Wednesday.
