Rebels Bend But Don't Break

Stony Brook, NY – The Rebels defeated the Three Village Yankees, 4-3, Thursday night in another exciting contest. The Yankees had gone unbeaten in their last 18 games before coming up against the scrappy bunch from North Bellmore North Merrick.

Nick 2’s starting pitching and some stellar defensive plays from Kevin 5 kept the Yankees from getting going for most of the ball game. Meanwhile, the Rebels put some hits together and carried a 4-1 lead into the 5th inning.

Jack 8 came into the game in relief to get the last out in the 4th and cruised through the 5th. Things got a little dicey in the 6th after the Yankees started out with back-to-back walks, both of whom eventually scored, and moved to within one, 4-3, with the tying run standing on 2nd base.

Matt 11 did a great job behind the plate blocking three balls in the dirt and keeping the baserunner from advancing.

Finally, Jack coaxed a ground ball out to Alec 14 at 2nd base and the Rebels had won their fourth straight game.

Next week’s schedule features a hiatus from NJBL play as Oceanside and South Shore tournament play begins.
