It took nine innings for either team to score a run and ten for Batavia (18-17) to come up with the 2-1 win over Jamestown (13-22).

In the bottom of the decisive inning, Ryan Jackson started things off by hitting a base hit off the first pitch he saw.  D’Marcus Ingram followed him with a double to put runners on second and third.  Devin Goodwin then flew out to center field for the sacrifice to get the game winning RBI.

Jamestown took the early lead in the 9th by scoring one run on two walks and a single.  Batavia answered right back in the bottom of the inning.  Xavier Scruggs reached first on a wild pitch and Beau Riportella came in to pinch run for him.  Ryde Rodriguez then singled to move Riportella to third.  During the next at-bat, a wild pitch enabled Riportella to come in to score the tying run to send it into extras.

Joe Kelly (1-1, 3.24) picked up the winning pitching the two-thirds of the 9th and the 10th innings, giving up one hit with one walk and one strikeout.  Scott Schneider had a good start, going five innings with three hits and eight strikeouts.  Eric Fornataro filled in the gap with two hits, one run and two walks.

Ingram finished the night going 3-for-5 with a double and a triple.  Rodriguez went 2-for-4.
