FINAL: Herricks 5 Mepham 2 WP: Chris Marshiano (CG) pic.twitter.com/lYnp49YQHO — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) April 16, 2019 In a back-and-forth battle, Herricks defeated Mepham on Tuesday afternoon by a score of 5-2. With the victory, Herricks now improves to 4-0 on the young season, while Mepham falls to 1-3. Herricks wasted no time getting runs on the board, as Matt Yip stole home on a throw back to the pitcher, providing them with an early 1-0 lead in the top of the 1st. However, this lead didn’t last very long. Brendan Keane displayed aggressive base running for Mepham on a throw down to second, as he stole home to tie the game up at 1-1 in the bottom of the 2nd. This wasn’t the only instance of aggressive base running we saw in this game. Fast forward to the top of the 4th in...
Herricks Ready To Compete In Nassau Class A American League
Led by the heroics of Matt Yip, Herricks was one of the pleasant surprises in the year 2019. The power-hitting catcher led Nassau County with seven HR; including two in the postseason. Herricks finished with a record of 11-7 during the regular season, but was eliminated by Hewlett in a one-run game. Losing Yip – a finalist for the coveted Diamond Award – will be a challenge for the team. He was named All-County. They also graduated All-Conference 1B Mike Scordo, who is now at West Florida.

But with great challenge comes great opportunity and they have that with the new re-alignment. They will be in the American League of Nassau County Class A which will a...
