It was a rough weekend for the Seton Hall baseball team, as they were swept in a weekend series against conference foe Xavier after losing both ends of Saturday’s doubleheader each by a score of 10-6.
After a loss on a rainy Friday night at Owen T. Carroll Field, the Pirates entered Saturday looking to pick up two important wins against Xavier, a team currently above them in the Big East standings.
In game one of the doubleheader, the Musketeers touched Pirates starter Zach Prendergast up for two runs in the first inning. However, the Pirates would answer with 5 runs over the next three innings to take a 5-2 lead.
