No. 3 Caravel handed No. 8 Salesianum their first loss of the season Saturday afternoon behind the arm of ace pitcher Timothy Tyler. Tyler got his second win of the season in the victory over the Sals.
Caravel got the scoring started in the bottom of the first inning. Lead off batter Zane Bohn drew a lead off walk to start the inning. Singles by Tyler and Bradyn Thompson helped load the bases. With the bases loaded Truman Auwerda drew a walk that forced on Bohn from third for a 1-0 Buccaneers lead.
Salesianum then tied the game up in the top of the third inning. Matthew McSorley singled, while Michael Dell’Oso drew a walk. Chris Moxley grounded into a fielder’s choice
that forced McSorley out at third. A botched pick off attempt by Tyler moved both runners up a base to second and third.
Sallies starting pitcher Jack Rossi then stepped to the plate and singled to left field. Dell’Oso scored from third base while Moxley was waived home, but Auwerda threw a laser to catcher Miguel Herb who was waiting for Moxley at the plate. The run tied the game up at 1-1.
The Buccaneers took the lead back in the top of the fourth inning. Auwerda singled and then was moved around the bases to third on an error and a fielder’s choice. Truman then scored from third on a wild pitch that kicked all the way to the backstop that allowed him to cross the plate for a 2-1 lead.
The one run lead is all that Tyler needed. He went five and two thirds of an inning while only allowing two hits and one run.. He struck out seven Sals batters, but his only real blemish on the day was he did surrender six walks.
Caravel picked up an insurance run in the bottom of the fifth. Tyler led off the inning with a walk only to be pulled for pinch runner Shane Nardo. Nardo was then knocked in on a John Bujnowski double that just passed the outreach glove of the Sals center fielder.
William Potts came in to relieve Tyler to close out the game for the Buccaneers. Potts threw one and one third of an inning pickup up right where Timothy left off. He allowed one hit, and struck out three Salesianum batters to solidify the win.
