by Tucker Terranova (Photo: Catherine Scarantino) Matt Bolton takes us through what worked for him at the plate in a big win for Division pic.twitter.com/7Ne7PxPh3Z — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 25, 2024 Game 2 of our coverage of the Nassau County Championships featured a AA slugfest between No. 6 Division and No. 2 Bellmore JFK. How they got here: After finishing as the No. 6 seed, Division entered the playoffs with a chip on their shoulder, determined to prove doubters wrong and continue their run as one of the league’s dominant forces. They’ve done just that, getting hot at the right time and going 5-0 while scoring 47 runs in those games. For Kennedy, they’ve enjoyed one of the best seasons in school history. They faced off against two gritty opponents, Manhasset and Carey...
Up Next Powered by State Farm Ken Kortright Agency: The Yormack Twins
Sat down with Ryan & Derek Yormack at Bellmore JFK’s winter workout. The twin brothers both committed to Duke University as 8th graders @BellmoreJFK @CoachGattusJFK pic.twitter.com/Jq92EC7kRv — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) January 28, 2024 One wears New Balance, the other wears Adidas. That’s the only way Bellmore JFK coach Mike Gattus could distinguish between twin brothers Derek and Ryan Yormack when he first met them. You can’t begrudge him, either, as the identical twins look the same in every regard. While they may look and act the same, their play on the field is different from nearly every other kid their age. Most 8th graders aren’t like Derek and Ryan Yormack. As 8th graders, the twins shocked the Long Island baseball community by both committing to D...
Bellmore JFK Primed for Big Season After Hot Finish to 2023
It’s hard not to be optimistic about the direction of Bellmore JFK baseball following an incredible finish to their 2023 season in which they recorded their highest win total (13-7-1) since their Nassau Class A County Finals appearance in 2016 under coach Eric Passman. Mike Gattus, who took over in the Spring of 2019, has built the program back up to being a contender. After getting swept in their first series last year against Garden City, they showed resilience – first taking two of three against a strong South Side team, before rattling off 9 conference wins in a row. Ultimately, they finished with a playoff loss against Bethpage which ended their season, but they did have a taste of postseason success as they defeated Long Beach. They graduated 8 seniors from last year̵...
GAME RECAP: Offensive Outburst for Showtime Select in PG Northeast World Series
by James Ryder #Duke commit Ryan Yormack (‘27, NY) went 3-for-3 with two RBI. Consistent performer on the offensive end, creates tons of strength at impact. Plenty of intrigue as a power hitter. #NEFallWS @PG_Scouting pic.twitter.com/hH5PHE3ROE — PG Mid Atlantic (NY, NJ, PA, MD,DE,DC) (@PGMidAtlantic) October 28, 2023 The Showtime Select and East Coast Lumberjacks met on Field 2 at Lasorda Legacy Park Saturday afternoon as a part of the 2023 15U PG Northeast Fall World Series Tournament. This pool play matchup began at 12:40 and barely lasted an hour and a half, as the Select dominated in such fantastic fashion that the game was cut short after just 3 innings of play. The final score was 24-0. The majority of Showtime’s runs came in the top of the first inning. Their lineup was 11 ba...
