The Moran Mustangs won 3 to 2 in the 16th innings against cross town rival Dag. Down 1 to 0 Nick Iannone took the mound and battled the Mustangs back into the 6th inning taking the lead 2 to 1. DAG tied it up 2 and 2. Defensively Chris Murzak was a solid wall at second base, making outstanding plays throwing out a Dag runner in the 12th to keep the game tied. Luis DeJesus once again shut down any ball to the outfield, hitting the cut on 2 game-saving plays to home to keep the game locked up as Billy Gorry defended home plate on 4 attempts from Dag. Nathaniel Emerton came in for relief shutting down the Dag offense to earn the win as Jay Villano was the hero, ripping a double down the line scoring John COTTER. Let’s go Mustangs!!!!!

9-2 Depaolo

Better game! Lost only 9-2 while leaving 6 runners on base. We were 0-0 through 3 innings while Alex Tenero pitched a great game. There were a couple of errors here and there that led to one big inning. I am super proud of them. The coach of Depaolo said in the 2 years he has been coaching there, that was the best game they have had.
