Yesterday afternoon the baseball team topped Greenport, 12-2, to win the season series over the Porters, 3-1. Including Monday’s 18-12 victory, the Bears saddled Greenport pitching with 30 runs over the last two games, the team’s best two-game stretch of offense since a 31-run outburst vs. Pierson over the last two games of the 1999 season, inflicted over victories of 13-5 and 18-5.

Joe Wozny was dominant on the hill to ear his second win of the season, ringing up 11 strikeouts and registering a tidy 1.20 WHIP over 5.1 innings. Timmy Wozny came on in relief of his older brother and struck out 3 Porters. The defense behind the Wozny boys was solid, yielding zero errors on the day.

The Bear bats were lively from the get-go as they plated 3 runs in the top of the first inning, 3 in the fourth to build a 7-1 lead, and then 5 more in the sixth to put the game out of reach. Aidan Mega led the way with 4 hits while Seamus Scanlon and Joe Wozny picked up 3 hits apiece. David Choi, Scanlon, and Joe Wozny each picked up a pair of RBIs with some timely hitting.

With the win the Bears improve to 4-2 and look to keep their winning streak going in a home match-up with Pierson on Friday.
