by Nicholas Cipolla Game Over! Reed Hoskins rips a single up the middle to give NY Nine a come from behind win in the bottom of the seventh with 2 outs. pic.twitter.com/pkKUxlGx0c — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) August 1, 2021 This game was a classic from start to finish if I would say so myself. In a game that started off as a pitchers duel, we finished with a crazy bottom half of the 7th that swung in favor of NY Nine. In the first two innings, Brayden Martino and Ryan Martino traded zeros and both looked dominant. Brayden Martino of NY Nine got off to a video game-esque start as he struck out the first seven batters he faced. His Knuckleball was fooling and frustrating the LI Storm hitters for the first 2.1 innings as no one was able to put it in play. However, that changed in ...
by Gabe Zoda Spoke with coach Brandon Stein for the LIB True Diamond squad after their 10-4 victory over the LI Storm. pic.twitter.com/DKWKLgOzZE — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) July 3, 2021 Yesterday kicked off the 4th of July Stars and Stripes Tournament. In the 15u section, the LI Storm played against the LIB True Diamond. On a rainy day, these two squads seemed to find the perfect spot to play at Plainedge HS for their matchup. At the end of the day, LIB True Diamond would take the game by a score of 10-4. For most of the game, though, it was very close. One inning would end up changing all of that. The first inning would go by without any runs being scored. Starting Pitchers,(LP) Jimmy Stroehlien for the Storm and (WP) Danny Onorato for LIB True Diamond were able to make batt...
by Aaron Rothschild Walk Off double completes the comeback for the Long Island Storm! Great finish 8-7 win. @EcybTournaments pic.twitter.com/trRXlSNcYQ — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) June 13, 2021 When I woke up this morning to see a 10u baseball game I was expecting to see some fun, talented kids who were looking forward to playing some ball. But my words cannot do justice to just how impressed I was with both the level of play and coaching on both sides of the game between the Junior Ducks and the Long Island Storm. This morning at Plainedge Park the Long Island Storm pulled off an impressive comeback capped off by an exciting walk-off double. PJ Dwyer took the mound for the Long Island Storm and got off to a bit of a rocky start, after walking the leadoff batter, and a single ...
Final: LI Storm 1, ECL Jacks 0 WP: John Dezago (1-hit, 10-K shutout) pic.twitter.com/dVRDHTtQIG — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) October 17, 2020 The northeast is notorious for great pitching and cold weather and that was on display on a brisk Saturday, October afternoon. Uncommitted RHP John Dezago was outstanding all day, firing a 10-strikeout, one-hit shutout in a 1-0 victory for the LI Storm over the East Coast Lumberjacks in the 18U Northeast Elite. The lone hit that the Xaverian senior allowed was on a leadoff double in the fourth inning by Damian Amancio but he was erased as he tried to stretch it into a triple. It was an ill-advised decision to start the inning, but it did require a near perfect relay which is exactly what the Storm was able to execute. The only other threat ...
By Jared Valluzzi It was a wonderful summer night with a nice breeze at Wantagh Park for a 12U matchup between LI Storm White and Diamond Spikes. For these two teams, they both entered the contest winless on the year and were hungry to change that. Coming into the game each team really struggled scoring runs as they combined for just three runs through the 6 combined games they played. On this day it was different, it was both of these offenses coming right out of the gate swinging. After LI Storm White got an early double play to start the first inning, it was Diamond Spikes really getting the bats going. With a man on first and two away, Michael Murphy hit a big time triple to drive in Jordan Iglio to give the Spikes an early 1-0 lead. After a wild pitch, Murphy would also cross home p...
by James Ryder Final Score: 11-2 Storm. Here is Coach Sal and winning pitcher Stellan Zangari on the big win today (Reminder – Watch Out for those victory water showers!): pic.twitter.com/zXUwIil7yK — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) October 26, 2019 The 11u Championship game at Plainedge Park Saturday morning was a one-sided affair from the start. The Long Island Storm appropriately stormed out of the gate and dominated all game long. Four runs in the bottom of the first and second inning combined with great starting pitching led to LI’s dominant win over the Kings Park Pride 11-2. The Storm set the stage for their offensive tear when Casey Coco and Ryan Soloma hit back-to-back leadoff singles. After both runners advanced on stolen bases, Nolan Fernandez hit a hard ball to third...
