Behind its bats, Maryland baseball powers past Penn State, 19-10

After watching an early six-run lead slip from its grasp, Maryland baseball was forced to steal a last-minute victory with its offense.

Tied at nine in the top of the eighth, the Terps mounted a five-run offensive attack on the backs of senior right fielder Randy Bednar and senior second baseman Tommy Gardiner. Both contributed two-run singles in a rally that proved to be too much for Penn State to overcome.

The Terps overcame a rocky pitching performance and tallied 19 on 15 hits to grab a 19-10 win in a wild back and forth contest on Saturday, bailing out their bullpen and surviving a game that saw a combined seven errors between the two teams to improve their record to 4-5 on the season.
