DelPrete, Bombers Deal Chiefs First Loss, 7-0
Medford, MA- Right-hander Anthony DelPrete, who pitched the last three seasons professionally for Evansville of the Frontier League, tossed five innings of three hit shutout ball to lead the Testa Bombers to a 7-0 whitewash of the Chiefs on Tuesday night at Tufts University. It was the first loss of the season for the Chiefs after opening the campaign with three straight wins.
Chiefs left-handed starter David Garcia (0-1), a former professional himself at a variety of levels, worked 3.2 innings and took the loss, surrendering seven runs on eight hits and was victimized by three errors.
DelPrete, who struck out four, gave way to lefty Jake Kelly in the sixth. Franklin Pierce's Vinny Gemma worked a scoreless seventh for the Bombers.
Nate Leva, Justin Crisafulli, Matt Boleski, Doug Heald and Brendan Pyburn each had a hit for the Chiefs.
Joe Martini relieved Garcia with two outs in the fourth and threw one and one-third innings of shutout ball. Another of the few bright spots for the Chiefs was former San Diego Padres farmhand Jose Pimentel who tossed two solid innings of one hit shutout relief.
The Chiefs are off on Wednesday and will host the Cassell Club in a battle of 3-1 teams on Thursday at Tufts University at 6:00 PM. Southpaw Dylan Ellis (Gloucester, MA/Merrimack College), who took a no decision in the Chiefs 4-3 win over the Americans last Friday, is expected to draw the starting assignment.
