HAVERFORD, Pa. – The Haverford College baseball team fell to Rowan University, 10-8, in 10 innings in a non-conference contest at Class of '16 Field Tuesday afternoon.

Haverford (21-11) trailed 6-1, but scored five runs in the third and fourth innings to tie the score. Heading into the bottom of the ninth the Fords had one more comeback in them, plating two runs to tie the score and send the game to extra innings.

The Fords pulled within two on Bobby Bailey's three run home run to left center in the third. With the bases loaded in the fourth, Haverford designated hitter Jeff Butera hit a sacrifice fly to center field to score left fielder Jake Kaden. Third baseman Mike Galetta then followed with an RBI single to plate Louis DeRosa and tie the score at 6-6.

Rowan (18-10) reclaimed the lead in the top of the fifth inning. With one out and runners on second and third, shortstop Marc Magliaro singled to knock in two runs. The Profs kept their two-run lead until the bottom of the ninth inning.
