For Yale (2-2) Brandon Jessop (1-1) limited the Wildcats to just one run on five hits and struck out seven batters in 7 2/3 innings to pick up the win.
Freshman Ryan Overcash allowed two runs on three hits in 4 1/3 innings and struck out four in the start, but suffered the loss for Davidson (7-6).
Neither team could manage much offensively, until the Bulldogs got a couple of runs in the fifth on a two-run home run from Davis Stanley.

In the eighth inning, senior second baseman Zach Kayne hit his team-leading fifth home run of the season for the Wildcats first run of the game.
