Gwynedd-Mercy 6, Dickinson 5
Griffins play on despite rainy conditions to defeat Red Devils

Box Score

GWYNEDD VALLEY, PA - Despite the wet conditions, the Griffins were able to hold off visiting Dickinson, 6-5, Wednesday afternoon.

Freshman Albert DiDomenico (Philadelphia/Neumann-Goretti) went 4-for-5 with two RBIs and a run scored for Gwynedd (22-9). Junior Mark Mattes (Doylestown, Pa./C.B. East) collected three hits including a double.

Starter Anthony Capella (Philadelphia/Roman Catholic) went five innings, stuck out four, walked two, and gave up one run on just two hits.

Capella left after five with his team up 2-1. Later in the seventh, the Griffins tacked on two more runs for a 4-1 lead, but the Red Devils answered, getting two runs back in the top of the eighth off a GM error.

DiDomenico added an RBI single and Ken Bengtson (Jamison, Pa./C.B. East) scored from third on a wild pitch in the eighth, giving the Griffins a 6-3 edge.

In the 9th Dickinson threatened one last time, scoring two runs to pull within one and had the bases loaded when the home-plate umpire called the game due to the rain.

Gwynedd will play at Misericordia on Friday at 3 p.m. in the last PAC weekend series of the season. The two teams will meet here on Saturday in a doubleheader starting at 1 p.m.
