The Crimson (1-18, 0-4 Ivy) continued its woeful season at the plate and watched suddenly hot Columbia (9-16, 5-1) thrive in wet, frigid weather yesterday. The Lions swept the doubleheader, taking the first game, 2-0, behind a complete game shutout from Joe Scarlata, and hitting their way to a 10-2 rout in the nightcap. “We just needed something to happen, and the bats were silent...
