Falcons Crush Spartans to Advance to Championship

Flanagan(2-0) would score early and often en route to a 17-1 dismantling of Monsignor Pace(0-2) last night in the Falcons NIKE/OTS Challenge game #6.

The Falcons would jump out to a 5-1 lead in the 1st inning before an out was recorded. Ricky Santiago doubled to lead off the game and seniors Matt Figueroa and Mike Melendez followed with 2 consecutive singles. Santiago would score on a wild pitch for the first run. Santiago went 3 for 3 on the night with an RBI and 2 runs scored. 

The Falcons put the game out of reach in the 2nd inning scoring 12 runs on 10 hits including a 3 run HR from Senior DH Matt Beauchemin (2 for 2, BB, 4 RBI) who has yet to make an out in 2011. Seniors: Matt Figueroa(2 for 4, 2 runs, RBI) and Robert Collin(2 for 3, SF, RBI) added 2 hits a piece while Sophomores: Zack Collins(1 for 1, 2B, 2 BB) and Danny Zardon(1 for 3, 2 ROE, 2 RBI) contributed with 3 runs scored each. 

 On the mound Senior LH Mike Melendez picked up the win allowing 1 unearned run on just 1 hit while striking out 3. Senior RH Robert Collin pitched 2 scoreless innings, striking out 2 without allowing a base runner to close out the game in the 5 inning run-rule.

The Falcons advance to Friday Nights Championship Game where they'll take on the Calvary Christian Academy Eagles who advanced out of Bracket B via the tie-Breaker Rule of least amount of runs allowed.
