Both starting pitchers, Scott Barnes for St. John's and Clemson's Daniel Moskos pitch excellent ballgames but end up getting the no decision. Barnes goes 7.2, 6 hits, 1 run, 1 walk, 7 K's, while Moskos goes 8 innings, giving up 7 hits, 1 run, 1 walk, 4 K's.

Your winner is Alan Farina who goes to 6-3 (despite giving up the go ahead run in the top of the 9th after not covering firstbase on the play). Your loser is Colin Lynch who drops to 1-2 after going an inning in relief, giving up three hits and two runs.

That's a devastating loss for St. John's, so much so, that's going to be real tough to come back from. You got exactly the game you wanted out of your ace, and you got exactly what you needed against Clemson's, and was able to scratch across a run in the top of the ninth to take the lead for your closer. Things just fell apart on them in that inning. For a team that won 80-percent of their games over their last 50 games played, that one is going to sting.

Catcher Brendan Monaghan just kneeled at the plate for what seemed like a couple of minutes after Boyd scored the winning run, as he appeared to be in shock. Clemson's Andy D'Alessio was actually the first one over to him and patted him on the back. Game two preview coming on up.
