Roughriders Baseball
2012 Year In Review


WEEK 7

Roughriders 2, Deptford 0 July 16, 2012
DEPTFORD - Mike Reagle pitched a complete game, two-hit shutout to lead the Roughriders to a 2-0 victory over Deptford. Reagle struck out six and walked three in a commanding 77-pitch performance to earn his second win of the year. The Roughs broke a scoreless tie in the fourth, when Ryan Easterday (single) and Alex Reinicker (walk) got on to start the inning. Sean Menickella then sacrificed both runners over, and after the second out, Rory McTear’s infield single scored Easterday. When Deptford couldn’t secure the ball, Reinicker raced home with the second and final run. McTear and Phil Guinto each had two hits on the evening.
Roughriders 8, Cherry Hill West 7 July 18, 2012
LINDENWOLD - Mike Wasienko’s RBI broke a 7-7 tie in the fourth inning, and the Roughriders recorded the final out at home plate after a wild pitch to secure an 8-7 win over Cherry Hill West. Back-to-back doubles by Chris Vonderschmidt and Ryan Easterday put the Roughs up 1-0 in the first. Wasienko followed with an RBI single to make it 2-0. The Roughs would extend their lead to 6-2 with four in the second, highlighted by both Lex Still and Dean Wilson scoring on a wild pitch. However, Cherry Hill West struck for five runs over the next two innings to gain a 7-6 lead. But Easterday’s RBI single scored Dan Snyder (leadoff single) to tie the game and Wasienko’s RBI groundout gave the Roughs the lead after four innings of play. The bullpen then took over, as Easterday earned the win with two innings of one-hit relief in the fifth and sixth frames and Dan McKenna earned his second save of the season by pitching the seventh. The right-hander ended the game by tagging out the potential tying run at the plate after a wild pitch. The home win was the team’s 10th in a row after an opening loss to Camden back on June 6th.
