Back in NJ

The TR South baseball team touched down this afternoon at Newark-Liberty Airport (despite a pretty shakey landing on our 757) winners of four straight in Florida.

The Indians (6-1) defeated St. Joe of Buffalo 3-1, Batavia (NY) 15-0, Yorktown (NY) 7-3 and Foxlane (NY) 12-7. They also defeated St. Joe in a "B" Game 5-3.

Winning pitchers included Evan Bigler against St. Joe and Foxlane, Marc Potter against Yorktown and Joe Talerico vs. Batavia. Talerico had a huge week with the bat, stroking numerous extra base hits en route to going 9 for 10 on the week at the plate. Sophomore Ryan Kapp had a memorable moment against Batavia as he stepped up to the plate as a pinch hitter and belted two homers in the same inning.

I'll be back with more details on Sunday.

South hosts Central on Monday at 3:45 p.m.
