The Ivy League Red Rolfe Division picture became a little clearer on
Friday afternoon, removing one hurdle for Harvard in its attempt to
repeat as division champion.
Entering the weekend, the Crimson stood one game ahead of
Dartmouth, which it meets four times Saturday and Sunday, two games
ahead of Yale, and three games clear of mathematically-eliminated
Brown.
Then, the Bulldogs and the Bears split the first of their two
scheduled weekend doubleheaders, with Yale capturing the opener, 3-1,
but dropping the nightcap by a 8-3 count in Providence.
Those results erase the Bulldogs from divisional contention,
leaving Harvard and the Big Green to duke it out over the course of
their home-and-home series. The Crimson will advance to the Ivy
Championship Series by winning two or more games. If Dartmouth prevails
in three of four, though, it will finish atop the Red Rolfe.
First pitch on Saturday at O’Donnell Field is slated for 1 p.m.
