Is there a worse feeling in baseball than losing a game on a walk-off hit? Perhaps not, but this weekend, the baseball team was forced to deal with this more than once as its losing skid reached seven games with a pair of losses to Brown on Saturday followed by another doubleheader sweep by Yale on Sunday. The Bulldogs prevailed in Game 1, 2-1, on a walk-off homerun and Game 2, 6-5, by pushing two runs across the plate the bottom of the ninth inning.
The weekend got off to an ominous start for the Red on Saturday as Brown (11-13, 4-4 Ivy) jumped out to a 3-0 advantage in the home half of the first inning of Game 1.
