How it Happened
Rhode Island (9-12-1) took an early 1-0 lead as Mike Corin singled to drive in Tim Caputo with two away in the top of the first.

However, Quinnipiac (10-16) responded with a two-out rally of its own, getting a three-run double, a two-run homer and an RBI single to pull ahead 6-1.

Similar to in the first, Caputo got on base to lead off the third and was driven in by Corin to make it a 6-2 game. The Bobcats would push one across in the bottom of the frame though, reclaiming the five-run advantage (7-2).

A fifth-inning rally saw Rhody tack on three more as the Rams continued to chip away at the lead. Derek Gardella ripped a lead-off double and eventually scored on a sacrifice fly by Ryan Olmo. Martin Taveras later doubled to left center to drive in both Corin and Nick DeRegis.

Shortly after however, the game was called due to continuous rainfall making field conditions unplayable.

Inside the Box Score

• Redshirt sophomore Mike Corin went 2-for-2 with a run scored and two RBI. He has now reached base safely in each of Rhody's last 15 games.
• Redshirt junior Derek Gardella also had a pair of hits against the Bobcats as well as one run scored.
• Sophomore Martin Taveras drove in two runs on a fifth-inning double, marking his third multi-RBI game of the season.
• Senior Tim Caputo reached twice - on a walk and an infield single - and scored both times.
• Junior Ryan Olmo went 1-for-2 with an RBI. He has now gotten on base in seven consecutive games for the Rams.
• Redshirt sophomore Ben Wessel (2-1) was charged with the loss, allowing six runs (all earned) on five hits over a 2.0-inning start.
• Freshman Dom Grillo and sophomore Evan Flanagan each tossed an inning of relief. Grillo gave up one run - a solo shot to the first hitter he faced - while Flanagan threw a scoreless bottom of the fourth.
• Joseph Scaglione (1-4) picked up the win for the Bobcats while Matthew Lorenzetti earned his first save of the season.
