GAME ONE
Penn scored three runs on two hits in the top of the first, including an unearned run on a leadoff error and a two-run homer. The Bears got one back courtesy of two seniors as Gunner Boree was hit by a pitch, swiped second and scored on a single up the middle by Nathan Brasher.

After the Quakers tacked on two runs on singles in both the second and fourth inning to extend the lead to 5-1, the Bears started digging into the deficit. In the fifth, Conor Cooke led off with a double and scored on a throwing error by the catcher, and Dillehay drove his fifth home run of the season over the left field wall in the sixth to pull the Bears within 5-3.

After trading threats, Penn broke through with a run in the top of the 12th. Brown answered by loading the bases on three consecutive singles to start the bottom of the 12th. Jared Johnson tied it up with a sac fly, and two batters later, Dillehay scampered home on a wild pitch to give the Bears their first series win over Penn since 2018.
Β
GAME TWO
After Penn put two on the board in the top of the second, Chang got the Bears on the board with a solo home run to left field, his fifth long ball of the year, to cut the deficit in half, 2-1.

The Quakers got the run back in the fourth with a pair of walks and a key two-out single. Chang broke up a string of eight in a row retired with a double leading off the fifth. With two outs, the Bears pulled off a double steal with Christian Butera swiping second and Chang hustling home to cut it to 3-2.
Penn loaded the bases with nobody out in the sixth inning via a trio of walks, but a 6-4-3 double play and a strikeout induced by Oshinskie out of the pen limited the damage. Oshinskie then struck out the side in the seventh to keep it a 4-2 game.
Β
Penn would go on to add an unearned run in the eighth for the 5-2 lead before Brown brought the tying run to the plate in the ninth with one out but was unable to score.
