The Crimson (28-12, 18-2 Ivy) parlayed two-run home runs by senior first baseman Peter Albers and sophomore second baseman Hal Carey into a convincing win against the 19th-ranked Minutemen (30-9) to close out the regular season.
"The whole weekend we didn't stop swinging the sticks," Albers said. "Anytime there was doubt in any game, we came back swinging, and you have to feel good about that, especially going into the playoffs."
Albers hit his fourth home run of the season in the sixth to give the Crimson a 6-3 lead.
Then, Ralph singled in Harris and Albers brought in Kessler with a sacrifice fly to center to bring Harvard within one, 4-3.
"We love to play UMass," Albers said. "We think we're one of the top teams in the nation and can beat any team in the nation."
