  • Jonathan (19) delivered TP’s game winning RBI.
  • Leandro (10) made an inning saving catch in left field off a rocket of a hit by East York.
  • TP catcher Jake and starter Alden combined to stop a Dodgers baserunner from scoring on a wild pitch.
  • Nigel (20) made a rocket throw to home plate to prevent an East York baserunner from scoring.
