PRINCETON, N.J. - The Seton Hall baseball team scored a season-high 14 runs on 14 hits in a 14-2 rout of Quinnipiac in a rain-delayed series opener on Friday.

The game was halted for 1:46 with the Pirates leading 2-0 in the bottom of the first inning due to thunderstorms. When the game finally resumed, Seton Hall starter Shane McCarthy (Fair Haven, N.J.) returned to the mound, but ran into trouble in the fifth inning. Quinnipiac rallied for two runs to chase McCarthy and tie the score at two.

Turning Point:
The Pirates didn't wait long however, to retake the lead, erupting for three runs in the bottom of the fifth to take the lead for good. The first three Pirates to bat reached base. Zack Weigel (Oak Park, Ill.) walked to lead off and advanced to second on a single by Mikael-Ali Mogues (New York, N.Y.). Mike Alescio (Fair Haven, N.J.) followed with an RBI single, which scored Weigel with the go-ahead run. With one out, Ryan Ramiz (Freehold, N.J.) delivered an RBI single, and Joe Poduslenko (Glen Mills, Pa.) tallied the third run of the inning for the Pirates with a sacrifice fly.

Inside the Numbers:

Seton Hall's 14 hits matched a season-high.

Weigel and Chris Chiaradio (Teaneck, N.J.) each reached base a team-high four times.

Chiaradio led the Pirates with three hits.

Alescio drove in a team-high three runs.

McCarthy earned a no decision with 4.2 innings pitched with two earned runs, five strikeouts and two walks.

Junior Anthony Pacillo (Lyndhurst, N.J.) got the win with 1.1 innings of scoreless relief to improve to 4-0 on the season.

The Pirates bullpen combined to toss 4.1 innings of scoreless relief and allowed just one hit.

Seton Hall left 12 men on base, while Quinnipiac left seven.

News & Notes:

With a steal today, Derek Jenkins (Annandale, N.J.) now has 97 career steals, which ranks fifth on Seton Hall's career list. Seton Hall great Marteese Robinson is fourth on the list with 103.

After a 2-5 start, Seton Hall has now won 16 of its last 19 games.

With the victory, head coach Rob Sheppard needs just four more victories to pass Owen T. Carroll for second on Seton Hall's career wins list.

Seton Hall improves to 3-0 all-time against the Bobcats.

Up Next:
Seton Hall will return to action tomorrow for a double-header against Quinnipiac. There is no longer a game scheduled for Sunday. First pitch of game one on Saturday is scheduled for 1:00 p.m.
