He drove in three and scored twice. His one-out single in the third brought home Jack Scanlon (Washington and Jefferson College) and started the scoring. He crossed the plate one batter later on a Sean Flannery (Monroe Community College) double. Ferranti connected on his first home run of the season – a two-run shot in the fourth that helped the Orioles take a lead they did not surrender.
