RUSTON, La. - The University of Maine baseball program dropped both ends of a doubleheader at Louisiana Tech on Saturday afternoon, as the Black Bears gave up 34 combined runs over the two contests to fall to 0-9 in 2020.

GAME ONE

• Hernen Sardinas popped the first home run of his senior season in the third inning, on his way to a 2-5 day with four RBIs. 
• Ryan Turenne also got his first 2020 bomb out of the way, an eighth-inning two-run blast, one of two hits for the sophomore in the game. 
• Junior Joe Bramanti got two RBIs of his own, his third multi-RBI game of the spring already.
• In a precursor of things to come, the Maine pitching staff imploded in game one, as all 15 runs were earned and stood alongside five wild pitches, two balks, and three hit batters in the team's combined line. 

GAME TWO

• Maine was three-hit in the nightcap, as Ryan Turenne, Joe Bramanti, and Connor Goodman each picked up singles to account for the entirety of Maine's offense. 
• More of the same in game two for Maine's pitchers, as 17 of 19 runs were earned and seven walks contrasted sharply with just five strikeouts.

UP NEXT

• The finale of the Louisiana series will take place at 11:30 AM Central (12:30 Eastern) tomorrow morning in Ruston.
