MARTELLA'S PHARMACY

Ben Watkins, who played with us from 2004-2007, tossed five scoreless innings of relief and picked up the win as the Staten Island Yankees defeated the Mahoning Valley Scrappers 5-2 on Wednesday in Game 3 of the New York-Penn League's Best-of-Three title series.

Watkins finshed his rookie season with a 6-0 record and a 2.24 E.R.A.  He tossed 52.1 innings and made 26 appearances.  Watkins struck out 44 batters and walked only 12.
