With 6 teams in the league, Team Red comprised of the best players from Shelter Island, South Shore, and Westhampton while Team Blue carried the best players from Southampton, Sag Harbor, and North Fork. Team Red jumped out early in the 2nd inning with a 7-spot to get themselves off and running. Sean Keys, Matt Torres, and Jack Halloran all singled to setup their Aviator teammate Luke Mistone to drive in with a 2-run single. Later on after a couple of runs scored, another Aviator Ethan Guerra drilled a 3-run homer to make it 7-0. Guerra is 2n...
Chris Batuyios Goes the Distance, Outduels Billy Steele
By Blake Buscemi Batuyios goes the distance, Mount Sinai takes the win. Final: Mount Sinai 6, SWR 2 pic.twitter.com/O0eywBOZHR — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 18, 2022 It was a battle of two aces as Chris Batuyios took on Billy Steele in Suffolk Class A Conference IV pool play at Shoreham Wading River High School this afternoon. Both are highly regarded arms in the conversation to win the Paul Gibson Award, so this was expected to be a low-scoring game before it started. Steele, who committed to West Point last year, had yet to give up a run going into this start and has consistently been sitting over 90 MPH with his fastball. Batuyios, a St. John’s commit, is an arm who consistently fills up the zone with strikes while also striking out twice as many hitters as he has innings p...
Coming Off First LIC In Program History, Mount Sinai Hungry to Stay At the Top
Chris Batuyios strikes out 3 batters to end the game. Mount Sinai wins the Conference V Long Island Championship pic.twitter.com/ZmZmwIGRbW — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) June 20, 2021 “I told these guys it’s hard to get to the top, but it’s even harder to stay there,” Mount Sinai head coach Eric Reichenbach said in regards to defending their Long Island Championship which was the first in program history. They defeated Island Trees in a wild one, 8-6, at St. Joseph’s College as ace Chris Batuyios struck out the final hitter to seal the deal. One could make the case that Mount Sinai was expected to compete for a championship in 2022, yet found a way to win it last season. Reichenbach agreed with that statement. “I thought we were a year away, so ...
Joey Marchese’s Three-Run Blast Propels SWR to 7-5 Win Over Mount Sinai
Go-ahead 3-R HR by Joey Marchese puts Shoreham-Wading River up 5-3 in the top of the fourth pic.twitter.com/kyV05kSkBA — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 12, 2021 Hits from the bottom of the lineup and lead changes are two signs of a competitive, compelling game of varsity baseball. When you combine the two, it’s even more thrilling. With one swing of the bat, Shoreham-Wading River’s eight-hole hitter, Joey Marchese, gave the Wildcats the 5-3 lead over Mount Sinai. They wound up tacking on two more, and holding on to defeat the Mustangs on the road by the score of 7-5. Marchese stated that he “was standing in the box and looking for a fastball to hit hard – got my pitch and took a good swing and got it out,” said the 6’4 slugger. With the victory...
Mount Sinai Brings a Young Team With a Ton of Potential

The junior fired a one-hit shutout with 11 Ks against a very talented Mustangs lineup that featured four seniors that went on to play at college. Those players are Ryan Picarello (Adelphi), Jared Donnelly (NJIT), Ethan Angress (CCNY) and George Rainer (RPI). “We had a really good group of kids,” said Head Coach Eric Reichenbach, who just finished his 14th season. “We were hamstrung a little with our No. 1 pitcher going down and missing the...
Mount Sinai Uses the Long Ball to Power Past Shoreham-WR
Our @DigmiNation Player of the Game is 8th grader Kyle Salvati who recorded the save in Mount Sinai’s 9-4 victory over Shoreham-Wading River pic.twitter.com/090WdVUNMO — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 7, 2018 It takes a pretty confident young pitcher to step on Shoreham-Wading River‘s home field and record a three inning save. Besides the fact that the current team entered the season at 14-1 and have reached double-digit runs TEN times in 15 games, they also have a bit of mystique at the field. They are the reigning Suffolk County Class A champions and it has a certain presence about it with names like Sal Mignano, Keith Osik, Bryan Sabatella and Eric Strovink immortalized with plaques on the away team dugout. And the field is literally located in the woods which only...
