Oswego State Baseball Gets Set For Non-Conference Doubleheader
OSWEGO, N.Y. — Oswego State Baseball looks to extend their twelve game win streak and remain undefeated at home on Tuesday, April 27th at 1:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. against the University of Rochester. Oswego took sole possession of first place in the SUNYAC West with a doubleheader sweep over Brockport on Saturday, April 24th, and the Lakers now have a 9-1 conference record. This non-conference matchup could extend the win streak as the Lakers continue to ride this momentum into the later part of the season.
Oswego has not lost a game since the first day of the season back on April 3rd, and ever since that loss the Lakers have been dominant. Oswego is outscoring opponents 155-85 and winning games by an average of five runs on the season. Five of the top eleven on base percentage (OBP) leaders in the SUNYAC are in the deep Laker lineup. Paul Tammaro and Ryan Enos are back to back in second and third, Myles Felton is in fifth, and Kyle Lauria and Ryan Weiss are tenth and eleventh in the stat. While he is highly unlikely to pitch Tuesday after throwing six innings on Saturday, Kieran Finnegan won SUNYAC Pitcher of the Week last week.
Rochester comes in at 16-5 and 10-2 in the Liberty League which is good for first place as the Yellowjackets have looked sharp all season long. Rochester and Oswego were scheduled to meet Thursday, April 22nd in Rochester but that doubleheader was canceled and Tuesday’s doubleheader will be the only day the two teams meet this season. Oswego and Rochester have met once in each of the past three full seasons, the Lakers winning all three meetings.
Oswego takes the field Tuesday, April 27th for a non-conference doubleheader against Rochester at 1:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. at home. The Lakers will look to continue the momentum of the current twelve game win streak as the team gets closer to the nationwide Top 25.
