The baseball team faced a tough challenge in its first four-game series of Ivy League divisional play this weekend, taking on Penn, who was undefeated in conference play coming into the series. The Red got off to a hot start, though, handing the Quakers their first loss, a 9-0 rout on the back of sophomore starter Michael Byrne’s six shutout innings of work.
