Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 Millersville, Pa. - Millersville baseball's first four-game series sweep of West Chester since 2001 didn't come easily but it was certainly dramatic. The No. 28-ranked Marauders turned a tied game one into an 7-4 victory and then rallied from five down with two innings to play to win 8-7 in extra innings on Tyler Orris' walk-off sacrifice fly.

Millersville (34-12, 16-4 PSAC East) remained two games ahead of Kutztown in the PSAC East standings with one series against East Stroudsburg remaining. The Marauders have now won 10 of the last 12 against West Chester.

Millersville used seven pitchers in game two but needed only Chris Murphy (11-1) in the opener. The sophomore set the Millersville single-season record for wins with his 11th. He went the distance to record his seventh complete game. 

The Marauders gave Murphy some support early in the opener with two runs in the first and another in the second. West Chester rallied to tie it at 3-3 in the top of the fourth, but in the bottom of the fifth with the bases loaded, Jeff Heisey hit a hopper back to Kyle Weary. The ball skipped over his glove, allowing the go-ahead run to score. Mark Stuckey followed with a bases clearing double that put the Marauders in front by four.

West Chester got one back in the sixth, but Murphy set the Golden Rams down in order in the seventh to close the victory.

The top of the order provided Millersville with its spark. Evan King went 2-for-4 with two runs. Jeremy Musser went 3-for-4 with two runs and a RBI. Stuckey plated four.

It was West Chester that raced to the early lead in game two. The Golden Rams built a 7-2 lead by the sixth and forced the Marauders to burn through six pitchers.

Millersville was even down to its final out in the sixth before the comeback started. Dan Johnson drove in Orris and King with a single. Stuckey doubled in a pair to cut the lead to 7-6. Stuckey scampered to third on a wild pitch, and then scooted home on another wild pitch, tying the game.

Adam Zipko (1-2) calmed the Marauders' pitching in the seventh with a 1-2-3 inning. He pitched another perfect inning in the eighth. In the bottom of the inning, Kurt Seiders singled up the middle and Tyler McDonald walked. A wild pitch moved Seiders to third, and West Chester elected to intentionally walk David Pine to set up a double play. Weary (3-3) jumped ahead of Orris with two straight strikes, but Orris lofted the third pitch to deep center. Seiders raced home with no play at the plate.

Stone led the Marauders with three hits. Johnson and McDonald added two hits, and Stuckey went 2-for-4 with two runs and three RBIs.

Millersville improved to 2-1 in extra inning games. The Marauders can now clinch the PSAC East with two wins over East Stroudsburg at home on May 3. First pitch is 1 p.m.
