Maryland baseball is sweeping into the final week of the regular season, blasting past Michigan 15-10 Sunday afternoon for a weekend sweep of the Wolverines.
The big story for the win by the Terrapins was an offense powered by the long ball. The offense blasted six home runs with Matt Shaw, Luke Shliger, Chris Alleyne, Nick Lorusso and Ian Petrutz getting in on the action.
Four of those long balls came in an 8-run 5th inning for Maryland. Petrutz posted a 3-run shot in the frame while Lorusso and Alleyne both had 2-run shots.
Shaw – the B1G’s leader in home runs – blasted a pair on the afternoon. It gives him 19 total on the season and 5 for the weekend against the Wolverines.
Now, Maryland hits the final week of the regular season with games against Georgetown and a season-ending road trip to Rutgers left on the docket.
Here is a look at all the highlights from Sunday’s win over Michigan:
