Ferrante went 3-4 for landstown with 3 rbi's. landstown had about eleven hits all but one coming from the 1-4 hitters .

Agree and pitching was not very good. Allie Satoski and Harry fisher hit the ball very good and PA capitalized on 4 errors and 6 walks in the 2nd inning.

Saw last 3 innings, landstown looked like they where coming back Faison and Blankenship with back to back triples, Faison kid can fly! Couldn't believe Hinton got hosed at third, after back to back triples the outfield was playing pretty deep don't think he had a chance. I didn't see the bottom half of landstown line up do anything, coach hart is going to have to figure out something. I bet ferrante wishes he could have his last ab over again, can't see him striking out looking again. Landstown defense looked sketchy, poor communication.

I am now liking #21. I know several say he was rusty, but I expect wd 40 to get rid of the rust, which I guess is the equivalent. If he was bigger he would be a prospect. #9 struggled, but you are right, not too much D. I personally thought the kid who came in relief did an outstanding job, whats his name? As I have said all along, the SS is the real deal!! CF struggled on a fairly deep ball in CF and "drifted" then dropped it. There was an 0-2 count early in the game that the pitcher served up on a silver platter for a 2 out 2 run gap double, what was the catcher thinking?

1) I doubt the catcher calls the game.
2) I REALLY doubt that the catcher called a pitch belt high. Do you think it was just a poorly executed pitch by the pitcher?

I was near the plate when I heard the coach question the catcher on his call, so I think it was a bad call versus a poorly pitched ball, it did not cost them the game.The catcher did an outstanding job blocking many dirt balls though, very impressed!

The catcher does NOT call the pitches. The coach yells a number that corresponds to what's on the list of pitches on their wristbands.

I am very confident you are wrong because the Landstown catcher wears a wristband and the coach calls pitches. And...again...NO ONE calls a belt high FB for an 0-2 pitch. Poor execution.

Not sure if many of you agree, but what I've seen so far this season, pitching is down across the board. Still a few good number 1's but a lot of teams not very deep on the mound. I predict some inflated avg's by the end of the year.


Beach lost quite a few D1 pitchers last year.

- PA - Tomchick/Lemaster (plus Begley to Juco)
- FC - Rienerth/Cook
- OL - Morimando
- Land - Sandifer
- Cox - Crouse
- Kell - Shiner

And I might have missed a couple others....

Landstown 8, Bayside 7

W: Dylan Williams (1-0)
L: Jesse Long (0-1)

Once again, its the story of landstown's defense that kept the other team in the game. After scoring a run in the first off of a sac fly, Landstown failed to hold the lead. 3 errors and multiple walks in the second inning coupled with a couple mental lapses by the landstown catcher led to a 6 run second inning for Bayside. Landstown faught to chip away at the lead inning by inning, with the bottom half of the line up contributing quite a bit today, scoring 5 of Landstown's eight runs, which was much better in comparison to yesterday where Faison, Blankenship, and Hinton scored all six of Landstown's runs. The comeback started in the 7th for Landstown when they were down 7-6 . 3 out of the 4 batters Jesse Long faced were walked, leading to 3 runners being on base. Da. Williams struck out attempting to get a bunt down, and Nick Faison had popped out making 2 outs in the bottom of the seventh. Landstown's saving grace this season so far seems to have been Alex Blankenship. During his at bat, a wild pitch was thrown leading to a run scoring tying up the game, before Blankership slapped a ball to a diving shortstop; but it was too late for Bayside, as the run had scored. Landstown wins, improving their in district record to 2-1.

Some good games went on today. Perfect weather for it too. A little windy, but otherwise awesome. Good back and forth game with FC and Salem. Tough break for Salem. Last check on the game I had they were up 6 to 5 in the top of the 6th. Another great game was the Green Run/Kellam game. Final score did not give justice to the efforts #16 put in on the mound for Green Run or #1 for Kellam. Both teams where held to 0 until the top of the 7th. A few mental mistakes and two well placed hits did the damage to Green Run. Until the top of the 7th, Green Run actually out hit Kellam 7 to 4. I know alot of talk happened before the season on who was the fav's and who would be last, but things are getting all twisted early. I know where only 5 or 6 games into the season, but it sure makes it fun not knowing whats going to happen next. Gotta love this game and the talented and driven young men who play it.

bball is stating what he thinks, I am stating what I heard from 3 of the coaches mouth about 12 feet away. I stand my ground, you have no clue because you were not there!

There is nothing to ask. You are wrong and don't understand it. I can't help you...I already tried.

Besides...bball_lifer already told you (and backed up what I said).

That lefty has swung it well the games I saw him, very clutch. I like the SS, he is a gamer and team leader.

Maybe you are both correct. Ever think about that. I have watched a few Landstown games and others over the past 8 years and theres a couple of teams that call number combinations for pitch selection at the Beach. Keep in mind, not every pitch is perfect and not ever target true. A catcher presents a high target to a pitcher, the ball is placed there and the coach might have wanted it down. Or the other way. A pitcher just might miss his spot and get tagged. You can usually tell by the reaction of the pitcher if he is honest and doesnt blame everything on the other 8 guys between the lines and owns his misques. Thats the greatness of the game. Identify the opponents mistake and take advantage of it.

From what I was told Landstowns catcher had more than a couple "mental lapses" Pilot reported 7 errors for landstown. Think they need to get some defensive practice in soon!

Not true, the catcher does give the sign to the pitcher after looking at his wristband.

This entire discussion is ridiculous. Trust me when I tell you after knowing these coaches and players on Landstown for several years now, the catcher DOES NOT call the pitches. Never has, regardless of the talent and/or experience of the catcher, I might add. And that goes whether it was Coach Hart now or Coach Mungin in previous years.

Now is it possible there was mistake by the catcher in giving the pitcher a poor target for the 0-2 pitch? After all, it turned out to be a fastball right down the middle.

Or maybe when the catcher actually gave the sign to the pitcher after receiving the "number" from the coach?

But he was 12 feet away and knows better than you.
