The Colby bats which had been somewhat quiet the first few days, were awoken this afternoon as the Mules picked up a convincing victory over Oberlin 13-5. Brandon Irwin '04 (Alexandria, N.Y.) smashed a solo homerun to left field to start the scoring in the second, and then the Mules picked up another un via a Joe Johnson '03 (Norwood, Mass.) single and Matt Simard '02 (Auburn, Maine) sacrifice fly. The fifth innning was when the Mules did the majority of their damage, with 8 runs coming on 9 hits. Highlights included a two run homerun to straight away center from Jon Lord '02 (Dublin, N.H.), an RBI double down the right field line from Lucas Cummings '02 (South Paris, Maine), a Vincent Domestico '04 (Ashland, Mass.) RBI single, a Simard RBI single, a two run single from B.L. Lippert '04 (Augusta, Maine) through the right side, and finally another Lord hit for an RBI. Colby picked up some late insurance runs to clinch the victory. Owen Kenney '03 (W. Chatham, Mass.) looked impressive on the hill for Colby, pitching 8 innings and giving up three runs on five hits while striking out six
