Roughriders Baseball
2005 Year In Review


WEEK 9

ProTryouts 4, Roughriders 1 July 24, 2005
ERIAL - The Roughriders fell to 9-8 on the season in their 4-1 loss to ProTroyouts on Sunday. It was the third straight loss for the team, which again couldn't muster much offense. The Roughs took a 1-0 lead in the third when Dan Severino reached on a hit-by-pitch, stole second, and advanced home courtesy of two wild pitches. But that would be if for the offense, which collected just four hits (Severino 2-3, Ian Wallace 2-4). Starter Mike Reagle (1-2) pitched well over four innings (3 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 2 K) but took the loss.
Roughriders 4, Hardenberg 4 July 25, 2005
HADDONFIELD - The Roughriders scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh to tie Hardenberg 4-4 on Monday night. Dave Vadurro's sharp, one-out grounder to first ricocheted into right field allowing Mike Carlino (walk) and Dan Severino (single) to score the tying runs. The Roughriders jumped out early in the first, when Severino doubled to lead off the game, was sacrificed to third by Matt Longo, and came home on a sac fly by Mike Carlino. Hardenberg scored two in the fourth off Rob Schork (3 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 2 K) to go ahead 2-1, but the Roughs tied it in the sixth. Vadurro (2-4) singled to lead off the inning, stole second, and came home on Rob Oryl's double to dead center. The bullpen of Mike Reilly (1 IP, 0 H, 0 ER) and Tom Ford (2 IP, 4 H, 0 ER) kept the game close until the seventh, when Hardenberg broke through with two runs to take a 4-2 lead before the Roughs rallied to tie it.
Roughriders 3, ProTryouts 2 July 27, 2005
HADDONFIELD - Drew Perry (2-2) earned his second straight win as the Roughriders downed ProTryouts for the first time this season, 3-2. Perry yielded six hits over 5.2 innings, striking out six and walking two. Trailing 1-0 in the first, back-to-back doubles by Dan Severino and Matt Longo tied the game. Jim Nastasi's sacrifice fly in the same inning made it 2-1. In the third, Dave Vadurro's RBI single scored Mike Carlino to increase the lead to 3-1. Tom Ford picked up his second save of the season by getting the last out with runners at second and third.
Roughriders 8, Kelly's 4 July 28, 2005
WASH. TWP - Dan Severino drove in the winning run on a RBI groundout and Mike Carlino tripled in Severino, all part of a three-run sixth, as the Roughriders defeated first place Kelly's 8-4 on Thursday night. Leading 2-1 in the third, the Roughs made it 4-1 when Matt Longo doubled in Jim Nastasi and Brett Young singled in Longo, all with two outs. Kelly's tied the game off starter Mike Reagle with three in the third, but the three-run sixth broke the tie and gave Reagle the win. Reagle (2-2) scattered six hits over five innings, walking five and striking out three. Dan McKenna picked up his first save of the year, pitching the sixth and seventh.
Roughriders 6, Deptford 3 July 29, 2005
HADDONFIELD - Jim Nastasi doubled in two runs to break a 2-2 tie in the bottom of the fifth, allowing the Roughriders to defeat Deptford 6-3 on Friday night. The win capped off a 3-1-1 week for the Roughs, who accumulated 7.5 points to jump into fifth place in the standings and draw a first round bye. They'll meet ProTroyouts beginning Monday in the best of three series. Brian Spicer, in his first start of the year, earned the win with five solid innings (5 H, 1 BB, 8 K). Mike Reilly pitched the sixth to earn his first save of the season.
