Score: #1 Johns Hopkins- 11, Gettysburg- 0
Records: JHU (34-3, 15-1 CC), Gettysburg (19-21, 6-12 CC)
Pitching Decision:  Romano (W/8-0), Leighton (L/1-2)
The Short Story: The top-ranked Johns Hopkins baseball team got six, one-hit innings from starter Gabe Romano and the Blue Jays hit six home runs in an 11-0 win over Gettysburg at Babb Field on Saturday.
How It Happened
  • The Blue Jays got solo home runs in each of the first three innings to jump to an early 3-0 lead.  Alex Shane (1st inning), Shawn Steuerer (2nd) and Sam Frank (3rd) all went deep in the first three innings to give the Blue Jays a lead that was never challenged.
  • Johns Hopkins broke the game open in the fourth with a five-run inning.  Jimmy Stevens opened the frame with a home run to left, Dillon Souvignier added a two-run single and Steuerer added a two-run single to center to account for the five runs.
  • While the Blue Jays were building the early lead, Romano was nearly perfect.  He retired the first 14 batters he faced before surrendering a two-out walk in the fifth.  The only hit he would allow in his six innings of work was a single to right by Mabret Levant to lead off the sixth.
  • A Shane home run to lead off the sixth, a Steuerer homer to open the seventh and pinch-hit run-scoring single in the eighth from Jackson Roloff accounted for the Blue Jays' final three runs.  The single for Roloff was the first of hit of his career.
Inside the Box Score
  • With its 11 runs today, JHU has scored 10 or more runs in nine of its last 10 games.
  • The six home runs for the Blue Jays push their season total 81, which is two shy of the program and Centennial Conference record of 83 (2019).
  • With 14 hits today, the Blue Jays have now collected at least 10 hits in 29 of 37 games, including each of the last 10.
  • Romano went six innings and allowed just the one hit and one walk while striking out five.  He improved to 8-0 with the victory.
  • Shane was 3-for-3 with three runs scored and two RBIs and Steuerer was 3-for-4 for four RBIs and two runs scored to lead a 14-hit attack for the Blue Jays.
Of Note
  • With the win today, Johns Hopkins has clinched the top seed in the upcoming Centennial Conference Tournament.  The Blue Jays will open play in the tournament on Thursday, May 4 when the Blue Jays play the winner of the first round game between the number four and five seeds.
Up Next
Johns Hopkins will close the regular season on Monday, May 1 when the Blue Jays travel to Franklin & Marshall for a doubleheader against the Diplomats.  First pitch for game one is set for 12 pm.
