Charles W. Flanagan High School Baseball

The Flanagan Falcons played long ball in their win over the McArthur Mustangs tonight 18-2. A 6 run 1st inning was highlighted by a pair of 3 run home runs, the 1st by Luis Penate and then Mitch Massard later in the inning. The Falcons would connect 4 more times as Massard blasted his 2nd of the game in the 3rd inning followed by TJ Foard. In the 4th inning Joel Carranza would extend his season long 17 game hitting streak on his final at bat, a 3 run line drive home run to left field. Freshman Michael Carballo would follow with his 1st Varsity home run, a towering blast to deep left field. All the offense was overshadowed by the anticipated debut of ace DJ Swatscheno. The lefthander pitched 1 inning in relief of starter Rudy Miret. He walked 1 and struck out 1 without allowing a hit. The win would go to Corey Witkowski(1-0), the junior pitched the 4th and 5th innings without allowing a run and striking out 4. Flanagan will travel to Cardinal Gibbons on Wednesday April 4th for a 3:45 game against the Redskins. Records: Flanagan(14-3) McArthur(4-13)
