Last month, just before La Salle baseball played its final game at URI, a fan's heart stopped beating.
Dennis Maloney was there to watch his grandson pitch.
For about one minute, he was medically deceased.
The two teams came together to save his life: https://t.co/mUcsdyYFaG
Alec Welshans hits his team-leading 16th homer of the season and is now one off from reaching the Atlantic 10 Conference mark!
La Salle 1, UMBC 0 | Bottom 2
It's not easy to hit home runs to straightaway centerfield at The Hank.
Alec Welshans just became the first Explorer to do so this season with his team-leading 10th HR of the year.
Richmond 9, La Salle 5 | Bottom 6
“For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. They will reject the truth and chase after myths.”

Some game film from the season so far.
Past 9 games: 15/25 (.600), 6 HRs, 3 2Bs, 1 3B, 17 RBI, 18 R, 7 SB
25 game win streak @FightingOwlsBSB@J_houser23@JucoPipeline
In 10 2/3 innings pitched, Titus Shay has not allowed a hit this season.
So it was only fitting he closed out our no-hitter yesterday.
In 4 perfect innings against Davidson this weekend, he struck out 8 of 12 batters and is this week’s @atlantic10 Pitcher of the Week.
Alec Welshans slugs a two-run homer over the left field wall as we add on in the fifth.
It's Welshans' team-leading eighth HR of the season. He has 3 RBI on the afternoon.
La Salle 8, Davidson 1 | Bottom 5
This is not a scheduled tweet.
Reigning @atlantic10 Player of the Week Alec Welshans just homered again. His fourth home run on the season in four games gives us a 4-2 lead in the sixth.
La Salle 4, Delaware 2 | Bottom 6
Alec Welshans and Chase Swain homer in the bottom of the third.
It is Welshans’ third homer in three games this season. For Swain, his first as an Explorer.
La Salle 3, UMES 2 | Top 5
The La Salle Baseball program was cut after the 2021 season. Yesterday in their first game back the Explorers put up the second most runs in program history with a 27-10 win over UMES
DEEP…FAR..GONE!
@AlecWelshans (@LaSalle_BSB) rips his first homer of the summer to give us the lead!

I need some support from our community and the baseball community in general. NOBODY deserves to be told they have cancer, especially not my teammate and brother Christian. Let’s help reach his goal to release any kind of burden on him and his family!
