Spiegel
(pictured above) earned his first career win, striking out seven in 5 2/3 innings in his second career start. He retired 10 straight batters in one stretch and allowed only one earned run.
Spano was magnificent in his first career appearance, becoming the third different Muhlenberg pitcher to earn a save this season. He took over with the tying run on third in the sixth and got the final out, then faced the minimum nine batters over the final three innings, striking out four of them.
The Wolverines put a runner on with one out in the ninth, but Spano induced a 3-6-3 double play to end the game.
Senior
Matt Riebesell, who went 3-for-4, singled in the game's first run in the bottom of the first, and senior
Justin Revel hit what proved to be a game-winning two-run single with two outs in the fourth.
In the first game, the Mules fell into a 5-0 hole but rallied to get the tying run to the plate in the fifth before Bridgewater put the game out of reach with a pair of big innings.
