May 6, 2009
East Providence, R.I. -- The Johnson & Wales baseball team dropped an 8-2 decision against Roger Williams in a non-conference contest at Pierce Field on.

RWU added to their lead in the top of the second when senior Bill Lambert (Hanover, Mass.) led off with a double and later scored on a passed ball. An unearned run in the top of the third then gave the Hawks the 4-0 lead. Johnson & Wales got on the board in the bottom of the fifth when a sacrifice fly by sophomore Teddy Katz (Pittsburgh, Pa.) plated junior Waldis Garcia (Lowell, Mass.) to cut the lead to 4-1. The visiting Hawks added four insurance runs in the top of the ninth en route to the 8-2 victory.
Junior Grant Bolin (Simsbury, Conn.) was 2-for-5 with two runs and an RBI in the win for Roger Williams while Lambert went 2-for-4 with two runs and an RBI for the Hawks. Garcia went 3-for-4 with a pair of runs for Johnson & Wales.
