This is a Maryland Minute, a short story followed by a roundup of Terps-related news.
Maryland baseball hosted Georgetown for its fall home game Saturday, when the Terps and Hoyas faced off in a doubleheader at Bob “Turtle” Smith Stadium.
In game one, Alex Calarco clinched an 11-8 victory for Maryland with a walk-off three-run home run. Aden Hill had tied the game earlier with a crucial ground-rule double, setting the stage for Calarco’s heroics.
Game two saw Jake Yeager start on the mound, pitching two innings and allowing two runs. Andrew Koshy followed with scoreless third and fourth innings but surrendered a solo homer to Connor Price in the fifth. Maryland trailed by one in the sixth when Brayden Ryan took over, allowing one run across 1 2/3 innings.
Despite multiple pickoffs—including two in the seventh as Maryland sought another comeback—Georgetown broke the game open with a seven-run eighth inning, bringing the score to 11-3. The Terps managed one more run on a balk, but Georgetown ultimately secured an 11-4 win to split the day’s contests.
