Berger Homers, Baseball Falls to Columbia in Series Finale, 7-3

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Sophomore Jake Berger hit his second home run of the weekend, but Harvard University baseball fell to Columbia University, 7-3, in the series finale of a three-game set on Sunday afternoon at Robertson Field at Satow Stadium.
 
The Crimson (13-16, 5-6 Ivy) – which tallied six home runs in the series – scored the game's first run and last two runs, but the host Lions (18-13, 10-2 Ivy) plated seven runs in between those stretches to win their 11th game in a row, including ninth straight Ivy game.
 
In game three, Berger went 2-for-3 with two walks alongside his home run, junior Will Jacobsen went 3-for-4, and junior Pryor Thomas tallied his first two hits of the season. Berger hit his second home run of the series and fourth of the year.
 
For the series, Jacobsen hit .615 (8-for-13) with a home run and three runs scored while Berger hit .462 (6-for-13) with two home runs, three RBIs, and four runs scored.
 
The Crimson opened the game's scoring in the top of the first as Thomas singled to open the frame before sophomore Chris Snopek brought him home with a sacrifice fly. The Lions scored the game's next seven runs with two in the first, one in the fourth, and four in the sixth. The Crimson responded with two runs in the top of the eighth behind a solo home run to right field from Berger and a sacrifice fly from sophomore Peter Messervy.
