Baseball Drops 20-12 Decision to Brown in Series Finale

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Senior Chris Snopek tallied a season-high five RBIs, and sophomore Callan Fang hit his first career home run, but Harvard University baseball dropped a 20-12 decision to Brown University on Sunday afternoon at O'Donnell Field in the series finale of a three-game set.
