March 4th against Inspiration Academy DH

Zack Sullivan (2-1) pitched an absolute gem against the Lions throwing 5 innings in 63 pitches with superb defense to back him up. Tristan Shelton got the save in relief to close out this nail-biter of a game scored 3-1. Mikey Dobkowski hit his 4th home run of the season down the right field line.

Landon Gruenwald struck out the side in the 6th but it was too late as too many runners left stranded thwarted any possible comeback.
