Monsignor Donovan pitcher Jim Baxter struck out the first eight Lacey hitters he faced yesterday. And the senior left-hander was just warming up. I was working the fastball inside and outside. Ironically, Lyons lost that game, O'Donnell said. The outcome was never an issue yesterday as Baxter helped himself with a triple and RBI, center fielder Keenan Flemming drove in three runs, and Brendan McCaig homered to lead off the fourth inning.
Errors are part of the game.
Castles struck out 11 and walked two. A Ryan Armstrong RBI single in the top of the inning lifted Matawan in front, 3-2. Sean Poling tagged a two-run home run for Keyport in the sixth. Rob Molner homered to lead off the seventh for Point Beach. Copyright 1997-2001 INJersey.
