RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk brings a 17-15 overall record and 3-8 CCC mark into the week after splitting its Saturday doubleheader at Western New England.  

In its last four games, Suffolk put up 44 runs. Three bats are responsible for bringing in nearly half of the Rams run this season in Luke Harder, Joe Ward and Harry Painter. Harder leads the team in RBI with 38 to his credit behind 48 hits highlighted by 13 doubles with 28 runs scored. Painter has 48 hits on his stat line was well including nine two baggers and nine homers for 35 RBI to go along with 30 runs scored. Ward rounds out the trio with 38 hits, 37 RBI and 35 runs scored.  

The Rams have relied on multiple arms to get through games as of late. Michael Muscarella (30.1 IP, 6.53 ERA, 29 K) and George Breslin (24.1 IP, 5.92 ERA, 16 K) have been the blue-and-gold's midweek guys as of late. Casey Sullivan (38.1 IP, 4.93 ERA, 17 K) has been reliable out of the pen. 

FIGHTING SCOTS FACTS
Suffolk's 6-2 win over Gordon April 5 started an eight-game skid for Gordon that put the Fighting Scots at 6-23 on the year and 2-8 in CCC play.  

Jonathan McIntyre sits atop the team in hits with 36 behind a squad-best .367 average. Patrick Tevenan has brought in a team-high 19 RBI on 27 hits. Shane Demers has contributed 27 hits, 13 RBI and 21 runs scored to the Fighting Scots offense.  

Gordon used six different arms, all usual starters, to get through its two-game series with Nichols Saturday. The Fighting Scots most likely will have a new starter on the mound Tuesday or have a staff day in Eastie.  

WE MEET AGAIN
Suffolk baseball bounced back into the win column with an impressive offensive output as the Rams bats struck for 18 hits en route to a 16-2 win over Gordon in Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) action at J. Tec White Field April 5.

JUMBO JIST
Tufts (20-9) opened its week with a 4-3 setback at Endicott Monday.  

Three Jumbos have 40-plus hits and 20-plus RBI to their credit. Miles Reid is a top threat at the plate with 48 hits and 23 RBI on a .429/.511/.518 slash line.
