From Dan McComb:
The Batavia 24U Baseball Team beat North Buffalo in a rematch Tuesday 11-1 to remain unbeaten at 4-0.
Batavia trailed 1-0 going into the bottom of the third, but erupted for 10 runs.
With the bases loaded and one out, Casey Radka laid down a bunt which was mishandled by the pitcher who threw wildly, scoring three runs.
With the bases loaded and four runs in already, AJ Marcello drilled a two-run single to make it 6-0.
Josh Baptiste followed with a single to make it 7-0, and Josh Bradley and Tristan Aldinger also delivered RBI hits.
Every batter for Batavia scored a run in that decisive third inning.
In the bottom of the fourth inning, Zeke Lynn drew a walk and Luke McComb singled. Baptiste followed with an RBI single to place the 11thrun.
The game was stopped after four and a half innings due to the 10-run rule.
Zeke Lynn started on the mound and went three innings, allowing one run.
Radka relieved in the fourth inning with the bases loaded and escaped without allowing a run.
Jerry Reinhardt took over in the fifth inning and had a 1-2-3 inning.
Batavia’s next game is at home against Lockport at 6 p.m. this Sunday, June 23, at Genesee Community College.
Lockport had the best regular season record last year.
