Gigi’s Pizza Brewers vs. New Hyde Park Kiwanis Rangers

The rangers took on the brewers on a beautiful Saturday morning. The Rangers had another offensive hitting attack scoring 3 runs in the first inning, 4 in the 3rd and 5 in the 6th. Bailey Lee went 1-3 with a hard single, Franco Dililta  went 3 for 3 with a double and three runs scored while William Lentini was 2 for 3 with two runs scored and two excellent defensive plays at second base and a nice play in center field keeping the ball in front of him and hitting the cut off man with the throw. Jake Glueck went 3 for 3 with 3 runs scored and 3 rbis and a nice defensive play at shortstop tagging a runner who overran second base, while Ian Meyer was the defensive wizard today with two great diving catches at shortstop and a nice play at first base while going 3 for 3 at the plate with 2 runs scored and 3 rbis. Jared Puntus was 2 for 3 with a grand slam home run and a single, and Anthony Robayo was 3 for 3 with a run scored. Ben Goodwin was 1 for 3 with a big single in the 6th inning to keep the rally going while Eli Goodwin hit as rocket up the first base line that would have been a sure double but for a great defensive play by the first baseman. Matthew Farkas was 1 for 2 with a hard single and was excellent at catcher. Alfred Squicciario was 1 for 3 with a single and Charles Linden was excellent at catcher making several nice stops and while playing third base made a nice play to force a runner. Each week the boys are getting better and better.
