RIVERDALE, N.Y. – After over a month of road games, the Manhattan baseball team will finally get to take the field at Clover Stadium this week for two games, as part of a four-game week for Manhattan.
The week opens with a single midweek game out on Long Island against the Hofstra Pride which is followed up by two home games against Hartford. The Hartford series will conclude on Sunday at Hartford.

The Jaspers have gotten sizable offensive production from
Daniel Perez, who is batting just under 300, .293, but has a team-high 3 long balls and is second on the team with 10 RBI.
