In a game that was suspended by rain and forced to be played over two days, the Hurricanes were triumphant over the Rutgers Scarlett Knights behind two home runs from Adrian Del Castillo and a grand slam from Gabe Rivera.
The game started well for the Hurricanes after junior pitcher Chris McMahon struck out Rutgers’ first three hitters to give Miami’s offense its first opportunity of the night. After two strikeouts, sophomore catcher Adrian Del Castillo opened scoring for the evening with a home run over left field.
Going into the second inning, Miami fans were hoping for some more flare from leadoff hitter Jordan Lala.
