AlThomas Athletics 10, Brighton Braves 7
A's come from behind again to edge a Braves team that never gave up for one minute in the series 10-7. Chris McDonough singled in brother Pat with the eventual winning run in the top of the 7th. Al Thomas Club wins series 3-0 to advance to the semifinals.
Ryan Stoller pitched 4.2 innings of solid relief, yielding 4 hits and a run to pick up the win. Brendan Wheeler and Bill Donahue led the offense with 3 hits and 2 doubles each.
Schools and Uberti, who mashed the entire series, each had 3 more hits to lead the Braves, who put up a vicious battle in every game. Congrats to Ted Tracy and crew for putting together such a quality team that is going to be heard from a lot more in the future. |
