Connecticut Pins 14-4 Loss on State College
Riding the 3-hit performance of second baseman José Navarro, the Connecticut Tigers stopped the visiting State College Spikes, 14-4, in Game 2 of the Round 2. Navarro went 3-4 with 3 singles, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2 for the Tigers, who now lead the best-of-7 series, 2 games to 0.

In the bottom of the third, Connecticut shortstop Orlando Gutiérrez had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and one out, Gutiérrez stroked a run-scoring single to center. It made the score 5-3, Connecticut. For the game, he went 2 for 4 with a double.

"We aren't quitting," State College manager Jimmy Alvarez said. "Yeah, the odds are definitely in their favor, but they've got to earn it."

Game 3 is scheduled for Tuesday at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park in State College.
