by John Sullivan Postgame interview with Jonathan Moya, who went 5 and a third with only 1 run given up on 3 hits and 6 strikeouts pic.twitter.com/zyBXvQsIFo — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) July 11, 2024 After dropping game 1 of the doubleheader to B1 Ghost, LIB Prime was poised to jump on B1’s starter, Jonathan Moya. LIB lead off batter, Frank Stella, did just that, as he ripped the first pitch he saw down the left field line for a double. Alex Catania and Dylan Babek then both worked walks to load the bases with no outs. Anthony Sanchez then came through with a single the other way to put LIB up 1-0. With the bases loaded, no outs, and 1 run already scored, it looked like a possibly disastrous inning for B1. But, luckily for them, Moya settled down in a big way and get two backwar...
by John Sullivan Postgame interview with Vance Kane, who was 2 for 3 with the go-ahead two run inside the park homer in the seventh inning pic.twitter.com/B4gRdVPzvW — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) July 9, 2024 The matchup on Tuesday night at Mitchel field featured the top team in the league, LI Titans Crema, who were 12-0 entering the game, facing off against the bottom team in the league, CPD East, who were 0-10 going into the game. CPD would go on to prove that they’re a much better team than their record shows, and they can beat any team on any given day, especially when Steven Quiroz is pitching for them. Quiroz, a consistent strike thrower who pitched to contact, started off the game in the top of the first with a scoreless inning, despite issuing a walk and a base hit. In th...

After a strikeout to the three batter, Nolan Homkaw hit an RBI double of his own to score Green. Oliver Martone then ripped a line drive into right field that scored Homkaw, but Martone was thrown out at ...

Although it was the first game of the tournament for the Bandits, the Titans came into this game with huge momentum, as they had just beaten the Long Island Junior Ducks 15-0 in their first game of the tournament earlier in the morning. The Titans would use this momentum to jump on the Bandits early.

by John Sullivan Vincent Genovese (Tri State Arsenal) and Ian Rivera (Yeti Baseball) are the Muddy Locker Players of the Game pic.twitter.com/gJCbFV3mRh — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) August 7, 2023 The 16u matchup that took place Monday night between Tristate Arsenal and Yeti Baseball was one that featured two incredible starting pitchers that refused to crack under pressure. Ian Rivera (starter for Yeti) and Vincent Genovese (starter for Arsenal) both displayed their talent on the mound immediately, as they both tossed quick 1-2-3 innings in the first. The second inning was not as easy for Rivera though, as he ran into a bases loaded one out situation after giving up a single to Mike Fosorile and walking two batters. But, the bases being loaded didn’t seem to affect Rivera becaus...

Solomon showed early that he would be a pitcher that pounds the strike zone and pitches to contact after he tossed a quick 1-2-3 inning with three fly outs in the first. For Steinmann, his first inning wasn’t as smooth, but he still looked good on the mound. After the lead off batter reached on an error, AJ Magaraci ripped a single into right field to set up a f...
