Hanover — Starting pitchers Michael Danielak and Cole O’Connor each twirled seven innings of one-run ball to help the Dartmouth College baseball team sweep a doubleheader from visiting Brown on Saturday afternoon at Red Rolfe Field at Biondi Park by scores of 5-1 and 7-1.

Matt Feinstein drove in three runs in the opener, and Michael Ketchmark had three hits and scored three times in the nightcap as the Big Green (17-11, 7-3 Ivy League) beat Brown (9-16, 3-7 Ivy).

Danielak settled in after loading the bases in the first inning with one out in the opener, inducing a double play to escape the jam. Danielak went the distance in the seven-inning game for his second complete game of the season, surrendering one run on six hits and one walk while striking out four.

Brown ace Christian Taugner was undone in the second inning, when Dartmouth scored four unearned runs to take control of the game. The Big Green’s Michael Calamari started the rally with a single. Nate Ostmo beat out an infield hit and Adam Gauthier walked to load the bases for Trevor Johnson at the top of the order. A throwing by the shortstop allowed both Calamari and Ostmo to score. Matt Feinstein followed with a two-run single to center to give Dartmouth a 4-0 lead. Feinstein then closed the book in the first game with an RBI single in the fourth inning.

O’Connor also found trouble in the first inning of game two as Brown loaded the bases on just four pitches with two singles and a hit batter. Josh Huntley then hit the next pitch for a sacrifice fly and a 1-0 lead for Brown before O’Connor settled down to retire the side.

Dartmouth took the lead for good in the second inning. Michael Ketchmark ripped a double into the gap in left-center to get things started. Calamari walked before Ketchmark scored on a wild pitch. Three successive walks allowed the Big Green to score another and lead, 2-0.

Justin Fowler and Calamari each followed with RBI singles in the third inning to chase Brown starter Reid Anderson. Fowler added an RBI double in the seventh inning.

The two teams will conclude their four-game series today with another doubleheader in Hanover; game one starts at noon.
