Towson, Md.-- UMBC baseball jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the third, but the Tigers used an 11 run fourth inning to pull ahead for good in a 21-4 win on Wednesday. Christian Torres (Miami, Fla.) drove in three of the four runs on a two-out double in the third. 

The Retrievers fall to 1-8 on the year while the Tigers improve to 3-7. 

UMBC got things started in the third with a three spot. After neither team had a hit through two, Dylan Wilkinson (Fairfax, Va.) reached on a throwing error with two away. Blaze O'Saben (Warrenton, Va.) then doubled to left to put runners on second and third. Dmitri Floyd (Dover, Del.) earned a walk to load the bases, but they would be quickly unloaded on a Christian Torres double to give UMBC a 3-0 lead. 

Towson would have a response, putting up 11 runs in their half of the fourth. UMBC got one back in the fifth on a Colin Casey (Ipswich, Mass.) RBI double that scored Floyd, but Towson put up five more in their half of the inning to increase their lead to 16-4. 

The Tigers would add another run in the seventh and four in the eighth to make it 21-4, holding off UMBC in the ninth for the win. 

Casey was the only Retriever with multiple hits with two and driving in one run. Torres had three RBI with Floyd scoring twice. 

UMBC will make their home debut on Friday and Saturday. The Retrievers will host Fairleigh Dickinson on Friday and Penn State on Saturday, both games starting at 3 p.m. on AmericaEast.TV.
