Rathskeller Hops 5, ATC Marlins 3
Rathskeller outlasts ATC 5-3 in extras at Pierce. Hops pull off a bizarre 5-3-4-2 triple play in the 4th to get out of a jam and keep the score knotted at 1. The fish were able to squeeze across two in the 8th to tie it on 4 walks and 1 hit. The deciding play in the game in the top of the 10th was pure trickery and speed as John Gauvin drew a pickoff attempt at first while Ryan Geremia broke from third to steal home on a close play at the plate to score the go ahead run. Josh Sokol (7 inn 1 run) and Skyluar Neal (9 1/3 inn 3 earned) battled all day on the hill. Geremia, Blancarte, Goodwin and Abarr with multi hit games for the Hops, while Edison and Nelson did so for the Marlins. |
