SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. - The Seton Hall baseball team lost its second consecutive game by the score of 10-6 to Xavier in game two of Saturday's double-header. The Musketeers completed the three-game sweep of the Pirates.

Xavier jumped on Seton Hall starter Matt Leon (Bethlehem, Pa.) from the start of the game. The Musketeers scored in each of the first three innings and led 9-0 before the Pirates came to bat in the bottom of the third.

Seton Hall (31-17, 5-7) made it a game late, scoring six times in the final three innings, but wasn't able to draw even. Brett Fontenelli (Toms River, N.J.) doubled in a run, and Mike Caputo (Morganville, N.J.) singled home a run in the bottom of the seventh to cut the Musketeer lead to 9-2. Down 10-5 in the ninth, Zach Weigel (Oak Park, Ill.) singled in a run to cut the lead to 10-6.
