The LI Expos remain in first place of Town of Brookhaven\u2019s summer varsity league after a strong outing from their pitcher, Alex Scheitzer. The tall right hander’s slow delivery gave way to a sneaky quick fastball with great movement, in a game that started late after Huntington forfeited the first game of the double header. Scheitzer, a Sachem North 2017 graduate, was unfazed by the delay and went out and threw six and two thirds strong innings of one-run ball striking out seven Blue Devils. \u201cMy teammates helped me stay into it [the game] they helped me stay focused,\u201d said Scheitzer. \u201cI just wanted to go out there, throw strikes, stay calm and do what I\u2019ve done for years.\u201d The Expos would go on to win the second game by a decisive score of, 9-1, after the Blue Devils started with eight players and had a ninth come late. The lack of a player only accounted for one out, as the Expos were held scoreless through the first two innings before coming together for a big five-run third inning. The Expos shortstop, Ryan Decoursey, was a big part of their offense contributing a couple key RBI in the five-run third. The impressive 3-hitter is an incoming junior at Centereach and he demonstrated strong fundamentals and baseball IQ both at the plate and in the field. He also was a part of Centereach\u2019s varsity team as a sophomore. \u201cI was just trying to stay back on the ball, because the velocity was off where I was expecting it to be,\u201d Decoursey said. \u201cI just do my best to have a quality at bat every time.\u201d The young infielder would finish his day 2-for-3 with a double and three RBI.
