SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. - Sophomore Ryan Ramiz (Freehold, N.J.) singled home Chris Chiaradio (Teaneck, N.J.) with two outs in the bottom of the 10th inning as the Seton Hall baseball team completed an improbable comeback to stun Rutgers, 7-6, on Tuesday.
Trailing 6-2 with two outs in the ninth inning, the Pirates rallied for four runs to tie the game and force an extra inning. With two down and Brett Fontenelli (Toms River, N.J.) on first base, Seton Hall drew three consecutive walks, the third of which, forced in the Pirates' third run. Freshman Sebastiano Santorelli (Staten Island, N.Y.) followed with a hard-hit single to right field, which scored two more runs and cut the Rutgers lead to 6-5. Joe Poduslenko (Glen Mills, Pa.) capped the rally with a single through the left side to plate Ramiz with the tying run.
Turning Point:
With one out in the bottom the 10th inning, control issues again plagued the Scarlet Knights. Three of the next four Pirate batters walked to load the bases with two outs. Ramiz followed with a grounder into the hole between shortstop and third base. Rutgers shortstop Gaby Rosa was able to knock the ball down, but he had no play, and Chiaradio scored the winning run.

- Poduslenko and Matt Fortin (Nashua, N.H.) both reached base a team-high four times.
